Organic food benefits

 Health Advantages of Organic 

FoodsWhether you happen to be the type of person to fret about what is being poured into your body, you must have noticed organic food at some point, right? At one point, I would not give much consideration on whether my veggies were organic or not. However, having read and witnessed stories I have gradually come to understand that making a gift to our health, even a small one, though meaningful, is what it means to choose organic. Let us discuss why organic food can bring such a difference to us and our families.

Health Advantages of Organic


What Are Organic Foods?

Organic foods are produced without the use of chemicals, pesticides, artificial fertilisers or genetically modified organisms (GMOs). In less technical words, the farmers grow these foods through natural means. It is close to the ways the older generations used to do it in our villages, i.e. cow dung was used as a fertilizer, compost was made, and animals were left to roam in the open fields. I recall my little garden behind the house, which, full of vegetables and herbs, was certainly of another taste!


The main Health Promoting points of consuming Organic.

Less Exposure to Pesticides

Exposure to Pesticides


Among the largest factors that make people convert to organic is the need to avoid contact with chemicals. Recent reports indicate that within only two weeks an individual can cut pesticides in the body by switching to an organic diet, up to 98%! Suppose, with this conversion, the sabzi we are eating now might contain to-morrow a great deal fewer unnecessary residues.


Greater Nutritional Value

Greater Nutritional 


Organic fruits and vegetables are reported to be more vitamins and minerals containing such as vitamin C, iron and magnesium than the regular ones. They are also better in antioxidants- these are used to prevent lifestyle diseases like heart problem, diabetes, and even cancer. According to one study, organic onions are estimated to provide approximately 20 percent more antioxidants than the regular ones, just imagine that is our daily roti, sabzi and dal that may not only taste good, but it may keep us healthy and strong.


Better Heart Health

Healthy Heart 


Eating organic foods, in particular milk, egg, and meat, means more heart-friendly Omega-3 fatty acids. These are healthy oils which safeguard our heart and enhance our brain condition. Studies indicate that organic milk and meat contain an approximate of 50 percent more Omega-3 compared to the conventional ones, just because of the natural feeding of the animals.


Better Immune System

Immune System

Organic foods do not only prevent unwanted toxins; they also make our immune system stronger. It is quite critical at this time, given all the health scares we had gone through in the recent past. The additional vitamins and minerals in organic foods are better in fighting cough, cold and infections in our bodies.


Weight Management

Weight Management

Organic foods do not have any artificial preservatives and chemicals associated with weight gain. Research indicates the healthier the body weight and the reduced chances of obesity among people who consume more organic foods.


Hormone Balance

Hormone Balance

Your choice of organic milk and meat results in avoiding synthetic hormones and antibiotics. This particularly benefits the women, as artificial hormones in the traditional food may disfigure our natural balance.


Fresh Tastes and Fresh Produce

Get any homestead cook--he will tell you organic vegetables are fresher and taste better! Most of us, me included, believe that the tomatoes in an organic farm are juicier, the mangoes are sweeter and the leafy greens are crisper. The reason is that organic crops are allowed to grow naturally and are harvested locally and not spending long distances to lose their freshness.


Safer Children and Expecting

 MothersChildren and pregnant women are particularly sensitive to chemicals. Organic food decreases their exposure by minimising their exposure to harmful additives. A few researchers associate organic diets with lower chances of pregnancy complications and healthier general development of children.


In conclusion,

 It is my hope that A Small Step Towards Better Health in itself can be sufficient to convince you to turn into a consumer of organic food production. It is not a highway leading to a fast track to health but a small but gradual step towards healthier and clean eating. It will only take a more conscious choice in our life and the future generation. In the modern world what small health we have should be our fort--why not the fort of food?

 Traditional Wisdom, Modern Science: Evidence for Typical Herbal Remedies Herbal Remedies Almost every Indian household has at least one grandmother's remedy for treating common ailments. From gol gappa at roadside stands to yoga in the form of turmeric milk for a sore throat, to cough in the form of tulsi leaves, to jeera water for digestion, we have all been raised on these straightforward herbal remedies. Many of us no longer consider such cures to be only ancient customs; rather, they are integrated and used in our daily lives. The intriguing question, however, is whether these ancient customs are supported by science. Are they only generational hand-downs or are they traditions? Since it seemed that our ancestors already knew this instinct or natural pulse on an intuitive level, some contemporary study is still catching up with it. In what ways does the science of today conflict with some of the traditional knowledge of herbal remedies? The Increase of the Herbal Remedies i...
