Why choose organic fruits and vegetables

Most of the countries, including India, are now becoming aware of the food that is being consumed by them. People have become diet and calorie conscious and they make a deliberate effort to watch what they eat. In India, the terms organic fruits and organic vegetables are being heard often in the recent past. Many people have started eating these organic foods because of many reasons.  However, some are still not aware of how organic and natural fruits and vegetables can bring about lots of positive effects in one’s body. Here is a sneak-peek into the benefits of these pure and untreated foods.

No hazardous chemicals – Organic foods are 100% natural. Many Indian supermarkets are now stocking these natural foods in large quantities because there is a phenomenal demand for them. Our body is made up of what we eat, hence, if we consume the artificial foods that contain poisonous substances, preservatives and other hazardous residual elements, we are spoiling our physique to a great extent. Organic fruits and organic vegetables do not contain chlordane, heptachlor or any other dangerous organohalogen compounds that are commonly found in the artificial foods.

Naturally grown – Organic fruits and organic vegetables are naturally grown in a place where the soil is taken utmost care of. Only natural fertilisers are used to enrich the soil’s quality and hence these plants are not exposed to any kinds of hazardous chemical elements. Hence we should exercise caution while choosing to buy our food from the stores. We should never opt for foods that are genetically modified or artificially ripened. By choosing these organic consumable food items, we can be assured that we are eating natural food that will cleanse our system in the best way possible.

Supports growth in children – Children who consume lots of organic fruits and organic vegetables have a healthier nervous system as compared to children who consume a large quantity of genetically modified foods. These types of foods give long term nutritional benefits for the development of a kid’s brain and nervous system and act as a catalyst for his growth.

More nutrients – Over the years many debates have been conducted on genetically modified foods vs. organic foods and the latter has won hands down in all the researches. It has been proved in many researches that the nutritional quality (vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants) of organic fruits and organic vegetables is far higher than genetically grown foods.

The above said qualities are only few basic reasons as to why we must choose natural and fresh fruits and vegetables over genetically modified foods. These untreated foods have more benefits that what meets the common eye. These foods guarantee complete and perennial nutrition to the human body.
