GO ORGANIC, make the switch
GO ORGANIC, make the switch
Posted by Viola Woolcott
There are hundreds of reasons why you should go organic. Hopefully you are already!
Here are a few ‘reminders’. Just listen to this:
>> Many fruit and vegetables contain a cocktail of pesticides.
>> Your skin absorbs 60% of what you put on it into your body (that includes the chlorine in your bath/shower water)
>> For many years some chemicals can remain in your body.
>> In conventional farming up to 500 chemicals are used regular.
>> To convert a farm into an organic farm takes 5 years.
>> Even though Chemicals such as Lindane and DDT are banned in the UK, they are still used in other countries.
>> Lindane and DDT are linked with cancer.
>> In imported food traces of banned chemicals have been found.
>> Antibiotics used on animals can be absorbed by you when you eat the meat.
>> Soya allergies have risen since the import of GM Soya has started.
SO GO ON, THINK AGAIN TO MAKE THAT SWITCH!!
