Differences

[|What's the Difference] =What are the differences between 'Conventional' and 'Organic' foods? = Organic fruits and vegetable are grown with tender love and care no such things as pesticides. Nothing that would endanger the purity of the organic system. All food sold as 'organic' must be produced according to [|USDA] laws for organic production. The most commonly used fertilizer in organic food production is manure. Farmyard manure is also used in conventional production methods. In both cases their use needs to be properly managed to reduce the risk of possible contamination of agricultural produce with pathogens (harmful bacteria, especially [|E. coli 0157]) and to avoid the possible contamination of ground and surface waters. It has been said that there is no evidence that organically grown and processed food is safer or healthier than conventionally grown food. But then again how intensive has the research been? It is a fact that cancer is among the biggest health issues of our time. We also know now that the fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides leave residue in the food we eat. We know from the article 'When Children go Organic' that the amount of chemicals found in the children's urine who ate conventional fruits and juices were 6 times higher than in children that ate the organic fruits and juices. That means we are ingesting the poisons. What happens after 30 years of eating those residues of pesticides and other chemicals? Do we really think this does not affect our health?
