What Are We Really Eating?
Everything that we eat has some form of an unnatural chemical in the product. As of late I have been considering only eating organic foods because not only is it healthier, but it is safer. In this term paper I am going to examine a few aspects of organic food. First I will examine what is organic food and what makes it organic? How does the prices of organic food compare to inorganic foods? And why we should eat organic foods rather than inorganic foods? I just want to be as healthy as I possibly can and I feel that organic food is the best food that we can eat.
Organic Food is the agricultural produce that farmers make on the country 's regulation and without agricultural chemicals and fertilizer .Organic Food is very safety for human body, and contains much more vitamins, calcium, and iron than non-organic one. organic food 's taste and smell are richer than that one. For these reasons, the popularity of organic food is developing. But when making it, it costs much to protect from harmful insect. Organic food has both a popular meaning, and, in some countries, a legal definition. In everyday conversation, it usually refers to all "naturally produced" foods, or the product of organic farming. As a legal term, it means certified organic. The distinction is important, as the two definitions can represent quite different products.
There are two different types of organic foods. Organic food, like food in general, can be grouped into two categories, fresh and processed. Whether not the food is referred to as fresh or processed depends on production methods, availability, and consumer perception.
Fresh food is seasonal and highly perishable but is one of the more healthier types of organic food that we can consume. Fresh produce which includes fruits and vegetables is the most available type of organic food, and is closely associated with organic farming. (
