Organic Food
Vitamin Global carries a wide variety of organic products. ...
"Organic" means no use of synthetic pesticides and chemicals with fruit and vegetable crops, and no use of synthetic antibiotics and growth hormones with cattle and poultry. Similarly, there is an emphasis on providing a natural setting for growth and development. Therefore, there is no use of genetically modified organisms, no sewage water is used for irrigating crops, and animals are allowed to range freely. During food production, no artificial additives are used. Insects and parasites are dealt with using natural prevention methods such as natural pest eaters and homeopathic preparations.
Benefits of Organic Food:
- Organic produce has more flavonoids - micronutrients which act as antioxidants to boost the body's immune system, allowing it to fight disease, including cancer.
- Organic fruits and vegetables have more nutrients, especially vitamin C and iron.
- Organic vegetable soup has more salicylic acid, the same substance found in aspirin responsible for reducing hardening of the arteries and thus the risk of heart attack.
- Organic produce has far less residue from pesticides than conventional produce.
- Organic produce generally has more flavor.
Today, there are dozens of organizations around the world responsible for verifying the authenticity and quality of the organic foods and products being marketed internationally. Organic products must carry a symbol on their packaging to assure the customer that the product conforms to the strict standards set by the certifying agencies. Below are several examples of such symbols:
