Why organic foods are so special?

Hello, guys!!!

I let here some informations about organic food!

Did you know that food without pesticides need to trigger your natural defense mechanisms against pests? This defense process makes food produces more phytochemicals substances. Thus, a food without pesticiedes has more nutrients than a food with pesticedes.

Phytochemicals are bioactive compounds with antioxidant action (fight against free radicals), which prevents cancer and cardiovascular problems, for example.

The load of nutrients in organic food, will depend on the climate and soil conditions where it is grown.

And a let you some tips here. If you don´t know if the food is organic or not:

• Don´t eat the seed, because the pesticedes are concentrated there;
• Thoroughly clean the bark;
• Discard the outer leaves because they are more in contact with the chemically treated soil and pesticides;

I hope it help you!

Best regards!!!
