Organic Eating

Organic Eating

These days, it seems as if you can hardly turn on the TV or your computer without hearing about the benefits of organic foods. And the truth is that there’s a lot to be said for eating organic. From a health standpoint, you’re ingesting fewer pesticides and unnatural chemicals. From an environmental perspective, you’re helping prevent toxic chemicals and greenhouse gasses from entering the ecosystem. But when you look at it from your wallet’s point of view, you might feel as if these benefits are out of reach. After all, you’re probably already stretched from the rising cost of petrol or other random bills, such as life insurance.Fear not! It is possible to eat healthy organic food on a budget. Let’s look at a few ways to get the best bang for your organic buck:Although eating entirely organic is an admirable goal, it isn’t always a possibility – whether because you don’t have ready access to organic foods or because you simply don’t have the budget to shop at Whole Foods every week. Don’t let this stress you out – you can still reap the benefits of eating organic even if you aren’t able to do it 100% of the time.For example, which product do you think has a higher probability of being contaminated with pesticides – an apple or a box of wheat crackers? Clearly, the more likely candidate is the apple, which has probably been sprayed with a variety of chemicals throughout its life.
