Overstated

<a href="http://www.health24.com/dietnfood/Food_journey/15-2052-2946,13706.asp">Organic claims often overstated</a><br />n<br />nAnybody who has read here long know that I am a fan of good wholesome food. That does not mean I support organic food though. I don't see anything special about it. The article I linked states that organic food does decrease the chemical load we take in. Two other things it states follow my thinking.<br />n<br />n<blockquote>Consumers also commonly think of organic food as more nutritious, but there's no evidence of that. "Not a single published study has shown any difference in the nutrient content of organic food versus conventional farm products," says David Klurfeld, a food scientist at Wayne State University in Detroit, USA.</blockquote><br />n<br />nSo, organic is not more nutritious. Something I've said before.<br />n<br />n<blockquote>The bottom line: read the labels, and choose foods wisely based their nutrition content – not their organic label.</blockquote><br />n<br />nSo true. Even if you eat organic you still need to eat healthy. Quality ingredients cooked well is what is needed. Not some fancy organic label. The organic label is not some miraculous thing that means a product is better. it only means the product is grown differently. Organic does not always equal healthy.<br />n<br />n<strong>Ignorance is the primary source of all misery and vice. Victor Cousin</strong><br />n<br />
