    Organic foods are the foods those are grown or raised without chemical pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Organic meat must come from animals that have access to the outdoors that are not treated with antibiotics or hormones, and that are fed organic feed.There are many health benefits of organic food the\y are-
    # Organic foods helps in avoiding the harmful toxins.Our body has to process everything we put into it and eliminate what it cannot digest. If your food contains toxins in the form of chemical pesticides and fertilizers, your body has to figure out a way to get rid of the toxins. When the body cannot get rid of toxins fast enough, it stores them until it has time to eliminate them. This can lead to many health problems. Many of the pesticides used in farming have been found to be carcinogenic. Reducing your exposure to these toxins can improve your health. True, some people eliminate toxins well. Still, the body needs to expend energy to eliminate toxins when it could be doing other things such as healing damaged cells, fighting off viruses and bacteria, or patrolling the body for cancer cells.
    # Organic foods taste better. Yes, sometimes they have blemishes or the occasional bug, but their taste is superior to conventionally grown foods. Organic foods often contain less water than conventionally grown foods and thus have a more concentrated flavor. Because organic items are often grown locally, they “ripen on the vine” and are fresher than conventionally grown foods that are shipped from further away. The difference can be subtle, but it is there.
    # Organic foods are more alive. This is a hard one to prove, but as fruits and vegetables ripen, they incorporate sunlight and nutrients from the soil and store vital energy.Our body uses this vital energy as well as the vitamins and minerals stored in the food you eat. So its very much beneficial to take organic foods

    Very well said Abhishek..organic fruits and vegetables are very good for the health. As they retain most of the nutrients and are also devoid of any chemical fertilizers.
