Health Benefits of Eating All-Natural and Organic Foods

Eating organic foods and maintaining a nutritious diet are key to maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Although some prefer non-organic products because they are cheaper, switching to all-natural and organic foods may prove more cost-effective in the long run given their health benefits.

Antibiotic resistance

The use of antibiotics is prohibited in organic farming but remains common in conventional farming.

The use of antibiotics in agricultural settings can contribute to the development of antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria that can be transmitted to humans.

Improved heart condition

Leafy green vegetables, whole grains and fruits grown organically and without the use of harmful chemicals and fertilizers have a high potential to keep an individual’s heart healthy.

Organic foods boost the immune system because you get the full value of vitamins and minerals minus the foreign chemicals.

Lower levels of toxic chemicals

A University of California study found that eating organic food for just one week can significantly reduce pesticide levels in the body. The researchers found that toxin levels dropped by an average of 60.5% after six days of eating organic food.

Pesticide exposure has been linked to many adverse health effects, including asthma, infertility, hormonal imbalances, autoimmune disorders, and impaired cognitive development.

That’s why Basics and Organic strives to provide all-natural, organic food products to everyone. Products include frozen meat, grains and condiments with no added preservatives, no chemical reactions and no herbicides, germicides and pesticides.

All products have their own certification from each manufacturer and supplier and are labeled as USDA certified. Basics and Organic also classifies its coffee, maple syrup and ketchup as pure and 100% organic.
