In the modern world, there is an opinion that only organic food is healthy and safe for health. However, you need to look not only at the organic mark, but also information about how exactly the fruit or vegetable was grown.

Research results in this area

Scientists have been doing research for decades.

Earlier research suggests that there is little difference between organic food and conventional foods.

Other results showed that the differences are large.

Such different indicators are due to differences in cultivation methods and soil nutrition.

According to an analysis by the scientific journal What Your Food Ate, crops grown organically and in healthy soil contain fewer pesticide residues and more antioxidant-rich substances.

In addition, these fruits and vegetables contain phytochemicals - flavonoids and carotenoids.

In general, it is important to remember that eating any vegetables and fruits is good for health.
