WaysAhead: Quick facts about Organic Foods - Myths and Reality


Organic food!! Whenever we desire to buy organic food, its price tag compels us to drop the idea. The problem is we do not know what an organic food is.

Organic food contains high level of vitamins and minerals like vitamin C, iron, magnesium, and phosphorous and are grown without pesticides. It is sure that the intake of organic food leads to less ingestion of toxins. It is a great choice for our health but how to identify?

Just select that fruit or vegetable which has a sticker with a 5-digit PLU code beginning with 9. It is for organic food. Organically grown items are not identical. Worms also help you in identifying an organic food. It is a good sign. These worms also know that non-organic food is just not edible.

So, next time when you see worms in your grains don’t jump. Simply wash it and devour it.

Organic vegetables have their own aroma. They do not need extra spices. Similarly, organic fruits are juicier, as they are allowed to ripen on the tree.
