Organic Food-It’s More Nutritious

Filed under: Ask Jamie,Health,Information — admin @ 2:30 am

Aloha,

Several months ago I received a comment online that disagreed with my contention that organic food is more nutritious than commercially grown food.  I finally found the research I had used regarding this information.

According to studies comparing 11 main nutrients by scientists at Washington State University, and the University of Florida, organic food averages 25% higher in content of these 11 nutrients.

The comparisons studied numbered 236 between food grown organically, and commercially and the scientists used all available data at that time. The report titled  ’State of Science Review: Nutritional Superiority of Organic Foods’ can be view by going to the following website- www.organic-center.org.
