Do You Eat Organic or “Almost” Organic?

Many people have turned to buying organic foods to avoid the harmful man-made chemicals that are often in food. Now we have to wonder if organic standards are actually being met in the foods that we buy.

The problem is that the organic foods market is huge and bringing in so much money that everybody wants a share. More companies are pushing the envelope and bringing down the organic standards. So how do we protect ourselves from “organic” food that isn’t really organic at all?

The best way to avoid these foods is by educating yourself. One of the absolute best things you can look for is the USDA Organic label. For foods to have this on them, they have to meet extremely high standards. If it has the USDA seal, and says “100% Organic,” then it has to be just that. If it just says “Organic” then the product must be at least 95% organic. If you can find the USDA seal, then the product has been scrutinized and approved by the most demanding organic organization in America.

Another thing to look for is whether the organic label even makes sense. Organic foods should be healthy, so you really need to ask yourself if you can take a bag of chips that claims to be organic seriously. Also, keep in mind that food meeting organic standards costs more than most. So if produce at bargain-price stores claims to be organic, step back and ask yourself what makes it organic.

Many people are also starting to shop at local farmers markets instead of buying their produce in big stores. This is because many small farmers really do farm organically, but don’t have the money to have their food certified that it meets organic standards.

Use your common sense, look into local producers, and watch for credible “organic standards” certifications. These things will help you to be successful in your quest for the healthiest organic foods.

When it comes to food and drinks?

its always best to go by the severing size, right ? I’m a Vegan and I heard too much almond milk is bad for the Thyroid Gland. The USDA and FDA bull sh^ts around so much, that I don’t know if I can take their advice seriously. For example, GMO foods do not have to be labeled GMO. Well if the foods were labeled GMO, then I guarantee you that costumers would stop buying those foods and switch to organic, but of course the reason for this none labeling debate is to increase the chances of selling. The less a person knows, the better for the other person to take advantage of him or her.

be very very careful! do you know who is spreading this nonsense? dairy farmers. farmers talk to badly about soy milk and almond milk because they want people to go back to drinking their cow poison. don’t listen. you never heard anyone saying it was bad to eat too many almonds and now they are talking bad about almond milk because more and more people are switching from cow’s milk.
