Organic Eating

If eating organic increased your enjoyment of the flavors of whole, natural foods- would you choose organic? If eating organic increased your chance of keeping your body strong and healthy- would you choose organic? If eating organic was better for the environment- would you choose organic?

Organic as a lifestyle choice.

There is a large movement against organic foods being lead by the non-organic manufacturers. We vote with our choices when we are at the grocery store or shopping on Amazon Fresh. We choose to either pay a bit more for organic- or save some money and go with the conventional product. We choose to support organic farmers by purchasing the organic options… or not. You can choose to spend your hard earned dollars on your health and the health of the planet… or not. Which feels better to you? Here are my top reasons for choosing organic.

• Keeping as many toxic herbicides, pesticides, larvicides, fungicides and hormones OUT of my children’s bodies and my body.
• Organic foods TASTES better. An organic apple vs. a conventional apple? If you haven’t tried a blind taste test- you should.
• Supporting organic farmers and the organic industry feels like the right thing to do.
• Pay more now on organic and whole foods and save on doctor and/or hospital bills later in life. Choosing to put organic food and drink can offer greater health and wellbeing benefits… which can last a lifetime.

In my organic eating blog, I’ll cover lots of tips and tricks to keep the cost down while keeping the enjoyment up. Here are some examples of foods that don’t cost too much more when you purchase them organic.

• Bulk berries
• Greens
• Bananas
• Potatoes
