Why go organic?
The first step to an eco-lifestyle is to start enjoying some of the huge variety of organic foods you can now buy. In doing so you are choosing the healthiest option for you, your family and the environment.
Like organic farming, organic food offers you so much more than just food grown without artificial pesticides or fertilisers, and animals not raised in intensive conditions or propped up with antibiotics. You will also find that when you switch to organic produce you will start to discover more about how your food is produced and the people who produce and sell it, which will add to your cooking and eating pleasure.
As you begin to realise what eating organic can offer, you will become increasingly aware of the welfare and environmental issues surrounding modern food production. Not many people, for example, automatically think of buying organic bananas or coffee, but look a little further into the issues – dismal tales of worker and environmental exploitation – and you, too, will be converted. As well as feeling a sense of well-being through choosing organic, you will help to make things better for all of us and our environment.
It was not so long ago that organic food was dismissed as a niche – and therefore exclusive – market. All that has changed. Today, organic food is mainstream and available in every major supermarket. There is so much variety, and organic food is so widely available, that there is something to suit everyone. And do not presume that organic food is expensive – you will find items that match your budget.
