Why Choose Organic?
There are many reasons to choose organic in life, especially for babies and toddlers.
Pesticides are designed to kill weeds, insects, mice, fungi, bacteria, diseases. Anything that may damage a crop. Pesticides are poison! They can cause cancer, infertility, nausea, allergies, diarrhea, asthma, rashes, ADHD, birth defects and more. Common sense would tell you not to eat poison, so why not go organic and avoid the risk.
100% certified organic food is grown and processed without chemicals, synthetic fertilisers and pesticides
The primary source of pesticide exposure in children is the residue found on non-organic food. Babies sure do eat a lot of fruit and veg. Some claim going organic is too expensive. But think of the cost involved in treating ill health concerns later in life.
Organic produce is seasonal and grown at their own pace to naturally ripen. The produce is then harvested at exactly the right time. Organic farmers don’t use nasty chemicals to speed up their growth so this leads to a fresher flavour. After all, nature knows best. Eating seasonal provides all the nutrition your body needs.
As Franklin D. Roosevelt once said, “The nation that destroys its soil destroys itself”. Soil is essential for life as it supports our plants that provide our food. Why would we want to destroy our soil quality with conventional practices?
An organic life is simply healthier, safer and better for us. You can’t argue with that.
