Organic Foods Versus Regular Food

Organic Foods Versus Regular Food

Conventional agricultural practices dump an estimated
806 million pounds of pesticides into the soil, water,
and air every year, according to Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) figures.

A number of studies have shown that children and those
with compromised immune systems are more vulnerable to
the effects of pesticides, and that pesticides in
combination -- which is how they're used -- are
exponentially more toxic than in single occurrences --
which is how they're tested for safety.

Pesticides store up in the body causing health problems.
It is hard to build health when you are taking in a constant
source of chemicals.

That is one of the biggest reasons I eat organic foods,
whenever possible.
