Anyone else on a 100% ORGANIC or non gmo diet?

Do you believe a hen raised in a cage, without real sun, over fed in order to get in to the right weight in 6 months instead than 2 years can be healthy? I mean... really... do you need a study to confirm that?

I read an article the other day comparing organic to regular grocery eggs and there was no difference in quality and nutrition. Yes better for the chicken, but not better for your wallet.

If I had loads of money then hell yea I would mitigate my risk to as close to zero as possible, but honestly the risk to a healthy person in eating normal foods is minimal.

Do you feel the same way about conventional produce vs Organic produce?

I shop for healthy food choices within economic reasoning. I find no significant difference between organic produce and "conventional."

If there is any enhanced nutrition percentage in organic with the money saved you can buy twice as much of the regular.

--------

Chemical and toxins exposure in daily life is unavoidable regardless, toxins are all around us, in the air, soil, food, water, dwellings, etc

--------

The organic fruit does taste better (sometimes) but that is a function of harvesting time not necessarily quality.

Additionally not all produce absorbs chemicals at the same rate, diff fruits and veg have diff chemical loads. I avoid apples because of this.

I think the basic nutritional value would be the same or very close the only difference would be the added chemicals that were used to grow the product. Pesticides and enhancers would be the concern. To answer the question that this thread started when I can I buy organic and grass fed product

I buy only organic food as I can afford it and I believe it will help to make the world a less polluted place. That said, there is no way we can, currently, feed the planet without using the practices we have.

^x2 same here, if its priced competitively, then sure, why not.

The chemical I'm most concerned about is the fluorine in the water, but that's a conspiracy in its self.
