3 reasons to buy organic food

With a lot of people making the choice to lead healthier lives, there's never been a better
time to go organic. Shifting to organic food is, in a sense, a gastronomical homecoming.
Back in the days of our grandparents, all food was grown organically. With the change of
time, our food habits have also changed and we have grown accustomed to more
chemically grown products. Now, organic food production methods are rapidly making a
comeback. But what does it really mean to go organic? How does organic food bring about
a healthy and holistic living? Let's go over the primary reasons behind the goodness of
Organic Food Products and how you can gradually start welcoming them into your daily
diet.

Organic food means conserving the environment

The use of pesticides and artificial fertilizers in conventional agriculture techniques often
ends up harming the soil, water quality and even the entire ecology of the land and the
surrounding area. By supporting the organic food industry, you contribute to better
environmental practices. In an organic farming system, there are no toxic chemicals, GMOs or
harmful additives. This means that the biodiversity of the environment can be preserved in an
uncontaminated environment while producing food for our consumption. With an emphasis on
crop rotation, organic farming also helps the farmers maintain healthy soil. When you go
organic, you can take pride in being nature-friendly and battling pollution in the fertile farmlands
of India.

Organic food means more nutrients

Organic foods bring various health benefits that can help you build a better future with a long
lifespan. In consuming non-organic food, you are vulnerable to the harmful effects of residue
chemicals and adulterants, both in the fresh produce and final products which are linked to a
number of health problems. Organic produce is not only free of those contaminants but also
holds more nutrients. Vitamins, enzymes, minerals and micronutrients are found to be more
abundant in organically produced foods. The responsible standards that are followed in
organic farming practices lead to superior sources of key essential nutrients.

Organic food means better taste

Besides having the nutritional edge over non-organic food, organic food is also found to be
way tastier. The better taste owes to the fact that well-balanced soil, which is not depleted
by artificial chemicals, tends to produce healthier plants that in turn produce more delicious
food products. According to various scientific studies and consumer surveys, people find
organic food products to have a richer taste profile. The higher antioxidant levels in organic
produce enhances factors like aroma, taste, and even the sensation in your mouth as you're
eating it.
Now that we have seen the ‘whys’ of organic food, let's turn to the ‘how’s’. The best way to
go organic is to start buying organic fruits and vegetables for your daily cooking. But fruits
and vegetables are not the only parts of your meal that needs to be organic. Walk into your
local supermarket and you will find rows and rows of organic food products, everything from
organic flour and pulses to coffee and tea. But it is worthwhile to note that the title ‘organic’
is often appropriated and used inexcusably. ‘Organic foods’ are not organic unless they are
certified organic. iD’s range of organic products always come with authentic certifications
