Organic Food: Does It Matter?
There are many misconceptions of what organic food is and what it can do for your body. No, it doesn't contain more nutrients nor does it somehow prevent disease or obesity - at least not on its own.
It's simple, really. The foods themselves might not be any healthier, but that's not the point. It's not that they're putting more good things into your body - it's that organic foods keep more bad things out.
Our livers have become overburdened with an increased toxic load, to the point where they can no longer eliminate all the toxins we're constantly putting into our bodies. Because of this more and more people are developing diseases like cancer, diabetes, and asthma.
This might also be part of the reason for the increase in obesity. The liver is largely responsible for your bodies ability to burn fat. A healthy, well functioning liver makes your body much more of a fat-burning machine. But it's become so taxed by simply removing toxins from the body that it can no longer do its fat-burning job.
Now, these chemicals are bad enough alone, but when the pesticides, preservatives, and high-heat of pasteurization all come together to create a processed food product, they make new and completely untested chemicals that wreak havoc on your body.
When you stop putting so many bad things into your body, something amazing can happen. Your body can stop being on high-alert all the time, constantly trying to bail water out of a quickly sinking ship.
So in the end, the choice is up to you. But yes, I'd say organic food matters. It makes a difference in your health, and it makes a difference in your life. It's true that switching to organic foods won't instantly make you look like Ryan Gosling or Emma Stone, but it lets your body not worry so much about keeping up with the huge burden of constantly removing toxins, and instead focus on giving you better overall health.
