Study Questions Health Benefits Of Organic Foods
Dear Reader,
We've been told that eating organic foods is healthier, but is it? A new review that appears in the Annals of Internal Medicine examined evidence from hundreds (230 to be exact) of studies conducted in both the U.S. and Europe on organics, hoping to find evidence of health benefits from eating these foods. Are we getting our money's worth in terms of health when we buy these products?
Some of the work reviewed compared organic milk, eggs, meats and produce to non-organic items. The research measured the nutrients naturally in these items as well as the levels of contaminants like pesticides and bacteria. A few other studies looked for health differences between those who ate only organic and those who didn't.
This latest review found that organic meats are far less likely to have so called "superbug" organisms that are resistant to treatment with traditional antibiotics. These bacteria cannot pass to people from eating contaminated food - we tend to get antibiotic resistant infections from our own over-use of antibiotics.
Non-organic veggies and fruits were 30% more likely to have pesticides than their organic counterparts. Reducing the amount of this exposure is increasingly thought to be of benefit to the body. But it's important to understand that the FDA has set safety limits for pesticides so it's rare to find any U.S. produce with pesticide levels over safety limits. Could reducing an already small exposure make any difference?
The Stanford researchers contend that there's no evidence organic diets make you any healthier than a non-organic diet.
Organic food fans point out that there are many reasons people choose these foods - health benefits rarely enter into it. Concerns over animal welfare or the environment are more pressing motivators. Some say organic foods simply taste better. Of course, there are also the benefits of eating foods that are pesticide and antibiotic free.
To be considered organic, fruits, veggies, grains, dairy and meat are grown using less synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, without antibiotics or growth hormones. The farming techniques used encourage soil and water conservation and are intended to be less polluting. The foods produced look the same, though they can cost two times as much as conventionally grown options. It may be the higher price that gives the buyer a sense that organic choices are better for you.

Study Questions Health Benefits Of Organic Foods Continued...
This research makes the case that the health benefits from organic foods are far from proven.
Other experts support choosing organic foods, no matter what the latest research shows. In fact, there was another definitive analysis of literature on the nutrition content of conventional versus organic food published just last year. In this study researchers from Newcastle University looked at a lot of the same research and concluded that organic fruits and veggies had from 12% to as much as 16% more nutrients able to fight disease than non organic options. Those researchers considered choosing organic as a way to give yourself at least a 12% boost in nutrition.
When you're shopping for organic foods you should know that the U.S. Department of Agriculture, USDA, has a certification program that calls for all organic foods to meet very strict standards on how they are grown, handled and processed. Look for the USDA certification on the organic products you buy. If you can't afford organic choices, buy foods that are as healthy and natural as possible. The more fruits and veggies (organic or non-organic), lean meats and whole grains you can get into your diet, the better.
To your good health,
