Still not convinced that organic food is better for you?
I read an interesting quote from Kevin Trudeau’s book, “Natural Cures They Don’t Want You To Know About”:
“- A February 2003 study published in the Journal of Agriculture and Food Industry showed organically grown berries contain up to 58% more polyphenolics than those grown conventionally. This means that organically grown berries have 58% more antioxidants than those grown conventionally.
- A 1993 study published in the Journal of Applied Nutrition, showed that over the course of two years organic foods contained up to 4 times as many trace minerals, thirteen times more seleneium and twenty times more calcium and magnesium than commercially producted produce, and also had significantly fewer heavy metals, including 25% less lead and 40% less aluminium.”
