Organic is safer
The truth is, organic food could be slightly safer than non-organic food.
In an ideal life, we would have amazing nutrients growing on our doorstep and would snack on protein-rich greens and nuts all the time.
The reality is, though, that most of us have to rely entirely on whatever our local supermarket has to offer.
The experts explained: “While most studies cannot yet prove that organic food is more nutritious, it is fair to say that there are other reasons why organic foods are considerably healthier and safer to eat.
“Non-organic products often contain chemicals and pesticides which are simply not good for you.
“If we stop to think about the pesticides, unlike the appetising ruby apples that they help to shape, it is not very inviting.
“In fact, pesticides are designed to kill and are therefore poisonous by nature.
“Ingesting these substances can have collateral effects on our body, which vary from diarrhoea, vomiting, and asthma to cancer, infertility, and neurological problems.”
