Organic food is a healthier option because it contains 50% more vitamins, minerals, enzymes and other micronutrients than intensively farm produced.
Organic food contained 27 per cent more vitamin C, 21 per cent more iron, 29 per cent more magnesium, and 13 per cent more phosphorous - “A study by Dr Virginia Worthington on the nutritional quality of organic versus conventional fruits, vegetables, and grains -- published in “ The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine “.
