Organic Foods Are shown To Be More Nutricious


Recent studies have shown that compared with conventionally grown foods, organically grown foods have more nutritional value. These findings include:

Organic dairy and meat contain about 50 percent more omega-3 fatty acids.
Organic crops — ranging from carrots and broccoli to apples and blueberries — have substantially higher concentrations of a range of antioxidants and other potentially beneficial compounds.
