One more big myth I would like to explode: Organic foods are healthier than non organic foods. Wrong! Just more expensive.

There are more organic foods sold in the US than are produced. :-)

RE: Organic foods are healthier than non organic foods.

You mean the entire premise of this business is a scam?

I met an organic farmer a year ago. He said that what the government considers and labels “organic” is a joke. He said they don’t know what the term means and all sorts of crap passes as “organic”.

After a month on Organic meats, produce and dairy, you really do feel like crap after reverting back to say a big supermarket non-organic foods.

GMO and hormone pumped Chicken breasts are the worst after going organic. they’re large and fibrous and leathery.

Leafy vegetables often have a slight chemical ‘off taste’ and kinda rot without showing exterior signs of rot.

Some vegans claim that humans aren’t “designed” to eat meat. They say that humans are naturally herbivores like our primate ancestors. However… this is completely false. Humans and pre-humans have been eating meat for a very long time and our bodies are well adapted to meat consumption (27, 28). Our digestive systems really don’t resemble those of herbivores at all.

I tend to believe this. Last I looked, I did not possess four stomachs nor chew my cud, like cows, sheep and goats.

How about you guys?

People primarily eat organic food to avoid the high levels of pesticides on so many conventionally grown fruits and vegetables.
