You probably don’t use a compost-powered sous vide machine to cook your eggs, and most likely, said eggs weren’t laid that very morning by the flock of organically-raised heritage-breed chickens on your sprawling, stunning, experimental working farm. But that doesn't mean you can’t use Blue Hill at Stone Barns’ nifty egg grating technique to add unique and excellent texture to your breakfast—and you might even be able to skip the cheese. (Though you totally don’t have to.) On a recent trip to the much-loved restaurant, our captain whipped out a rotary grater—the kind you might see cranking out fluffy clouds of Parmesan atop pasta dishes at an Italian restaurant—and loaded it with a freshly-cooked egg. </div>
<div class="ym" id="ym_1062938219519523226" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
After a few cranks of the handle, there was a springy little pile of yolk and white shreds on my plate next to a slim slice of potato-chip-crust pizza (seriously, there is a reason that chef Dan Barber and his team at Blue Hill have won a bazillion James Beard Awards and other accolades), and a goofy grin on my face. The grated egg looked for all the world like sumptuous, gooey mozzarella, which totally tricked my brain into thinking I was scarfing down a heap of cheese. Then my brain started cranking—how had I never tried this before, and how might I incorporate into every single breakfast and brunch until the end of time?</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
The technique itself is incredibly simple, and can be done with a rotary grater, hand or box grater, or a Microplane. Just hard boil an egg to whatever level of firmness you like, then grate it. If you’d just like to use the whites, peel the egg and stop when you see yellow, or incorporate the yolks by slicing the egg in half and rubbing the cut half along the grater. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
The shredded egg can be deployed in countless ways: sprinkled on buttered toast, worked into breakfast tacos or quesadilla in place of (or alongside) cheese, heaped on huevos rancheros, tossed into salads either fresh or re-fried, topping breakfast pizza or whatever other creative uses you might devise. Wanna get extra-wacky? Pickle the egg to add even more fun flavor and color to your meal, and play around with the temperature of the eggs, or different sizes and shapes of grater holes. Crack the code, have plenty of fun, and come up with some great new ideas for using your grated eggs.</div>

By now, we all know there’s a benefit to buying some stuff organic. But these days you’re faced with the option of getting <i style="box-sizing: border-box;">everything</i> organic—from fruits and veggies to mattresses and clothing. You want to do right by your body, for sure, but going the all-natural route en masse can be pricey.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />So we wondered: What’s really essential for our health? That’s why we came up with this definitive list. Here's what should be in your cart—and what you don’t have to worry about.</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #1a1a1a; font-family: source-sans-pro, "Source Sans Pro", sans-serif; font-size: 24px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 28px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: -5px;">
Beef</h2>

You’ve probably read plenty of stories about the risks of eating chicken. But the most important protein to buy organic may well be beef. "Research suggests a strong connection between some of the hormones given to cattle and cancer in humans, particularly breast cancer," says Samuel Epstein, MD, professor emeritus of environmental and occupational medicine at the University of Illinois at Chicago School of Public Health. Specifically, the concern is that the estrogen-like agents used on cattle could increase your cancer risk, adds Ted Schettler, MD, science director at the Science and Environmental Health Network.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 28px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Though there are strong regulations about the use of hormones in cattle, "not all beef producers are following those regulations strictly, and some studies continue to find hormone residue in cattle," Dr. Schettler says. When you buy beef that’s been certified organic by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), you’re not only cutting out those hormones, you’re also avoiding the massive doses of antibiotics cows typically receive, which the USDA says may lead to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in people.</div>

Strawberries</h2>

Strawberries may be a superfood—but they pose a potential risk unless you go organic. In addition to having up to 13 pesticides detected on the fruit, according to an Environmental Working Group (EWG) analysis, conventional "strawberries have a large surface area and all those tiny bumps, which makes the pesticides hard to wash off, so you’re ingesting more of those chemicals," explains Marion Nestle, PhD, a professor of nutrition and public health at New York University and author of <i style="box-sizing: border-box;">What to Eat</i>. <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />If you can, also skip conventional peaches, apples, blueberries, and cherries, which are typically treated with multiple pesticides and usually eaten skins-on.</div>

Your pots and pans are just as crucial to upgrade as the food you cook in them: "Most nonstick cookware contains a fluorochemical called PTFE that breaks down to form toxic fumes when overheated," says Olga Naidenko, PhD, a senior scientist at the EWG. "Those fumes can coat the inside of the lungs and cause allergy-like symptoms." <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Tests commissioned by the EWG showed that in just two to five minutes on a conventional stove top, cookware coated with nonstick surfaces could exceed temperatures at which the coating emits toxic gases. Switch to stainless steel, ceramic, or cast iron cookware.</div>

The linings of microwave-popcorn bags may contain a toxic chemical called perfluorooctanoic acid, or PFOA, which is used to prevent the food from sticking to the paper. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), PFOA is a likely carcinogen. "We don’t know all of the hazardous effects of PFOA yet, but we have some evidence of a link to cancer, as well as to effects on the immune, nervous, and endocrine systems," says David Carpenter, MD, director of the Institute for Health and the Environment at the University at Albany.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Pick up an air-popper or make your popcorn in a pan on the stove top.</div>

Some lawn and garden pesticides contain suspected carcinogens, according to EPA data. Long-term pesticide exposure may be related to changes in the brain and nervous system, the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center reports. "Not only are you breathing the chemicals in, but you bring them indoors and onto carpets via your shoes," says McKay Jenkins, PhD, a journalism professor at the University of Delaware and author of <i style="box-sizing: border-box;">What’s Gotten Into Us?</i><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Healthier brands like BurnOut and EcoClear are made from vinegar and lemon juice, and are effective weed-killers.

All-purpose home cleaners</h2>

Time for spring-cleaning? Using common household cleaners may expose you to potentially harmful chemicals. Ammonia and chlorine bleach can irritate the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. And some cleaners contain phthalates, some of which are endocrine disruptors, meaning they interfere with normal hormone activity, says EWG senior scientist Becky Sutton, PhD.</div>

Although there’s no definitive proof that phthalates cause problems in humans, "the greatest concern is how early-life exposure will affect male [reproductive] development," Dr. Carpenter says. There’s weaker evidence, he adds, that phthalates affect the nervous and immune systems. Go natural with the cleaner you use the most frequently and in the most places, such as kitchen-counter spray—look for brands approved by Green Seal or EcoLogo, two organizations that identify products that have met environmental label guidelines.</div>

You’ve probably heard that many hard, reusable plastic water bottles could be bad for you because they may contain BPA, or bisphenol A, another endocrine disruptor according to the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />"For adults, the biggest concern with BPA is that it may increase the risk of breast cancer in women and reduce sperm counts in men," says Dr. Carpenter, who explains that BPA can leach out into the water in the bottle. To be safe, sip from an unlined stainless steel or BPA-free plastic bottle.</div>

BPA strikes again: Many food-storage containers are made of the hard, clear polycarbonate plastic that may contain BPA. As is the case with water bottles, the BPA can leach out of the plastic in these containers and seep into your leftovers. <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />"The leaching is increased during heating, but it also leaches to a smaller degree even when cold foods are stored," Dr. Carpenter explains. Glass containers are your safest—not to mention planet-friendly—bet. Both Rubbermaid (at left) and Pyrex make glass ones with BPA-free plastic lids.</div>

The milk you’re drinking may not be doing your body good: Dairy products account for a reported 60 to 70 percent of the estrogens we consume through our food. If that seems like a shockingly large number, it’s mainly because milk naturally contains hormones passed along from cows. What worries some experts is that about 17% of dairy cows are treated with the hormone rBST (or rBGH), which stimulates milk production by increasing circulating levels of another hormone called insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1).</div>

"Elevated levels of IGF-1 in people are associated with an increased risk of cancer, including breast cancer," Dr. Schettler explains. In fact, the use of rBGH is banned in Europe and Canada. Although research has yet to definitively conclude whether drinking rBGH-treated milk increases your IGF-1 levels high enough to cause concern, Dr. Schettler says it’s advisable to buy milk that hasn’t been treated with it. So pick up milk that’s labeled rBGH-free, rBST-free, or is produced without artificial hormones.</div>

When researchers at the EWG analyzed 89,000 produce-pesticide tests to determine the most contaminated fruits and vegetables, celery topped the chart. "In terms of the sheer number of chemicals, it was the worst," says Sonya Lunder, senior analyst at the EWG. Celery stalks are very porous, so they retain the pesticides they’re sprayed with—up to 13 of them, according to the EWG analysis. Lunder also advises buying organic bell peppers, spinach and potatoes because they scored high for pesticides, as well.</div>

When picking up tomato sauce or paste, choose the glass jar or box over the can. "The lining on the inside of food cans that’s used to protect against corrosion and bacteria may contain BPA," explains Cheryl Lyn Walker, PhD, a professor of carcinogenesis at MD Anderson Cancer Center and past president of the Society of Toxicology. <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />In 2009, Consumer Reports tested BPA levels in a variety of canned foods and found it in nearly all of the brands tested, suggesting that the chemical leaked in. "What can happen is that BPA in the lining can leach into the food," Walker explains.</div>

Some regular mattresses may have been treated with potentially toxic flame retardants called polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), which have been linked to learning, memory, and behavioral impairments, according to Lunder. <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Though PBDEs were phased out of mattresses in 2005, they can still be found in other household items, including carpet padding and some electronics. The EWG advises opting for products that haven’t been treated with brominated fire retardants and choosing less-flammable materials, such as wool.</div>

Organic Coffee is a coffee that is grown without using any synthetic fertilizers or pesticides, on a land that was given sufficient time to detoxify itself, without the aid of any genetically modified organisms and finally processed and packed without the involvement of any chemical.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Health Benefits:</strong> Organic Coffee is good for health (except for the caffeine in it) in the sense as it does not contain any toxic residues of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, artificial flavors or colors, or preservatives. Therefore, these harmful substances cannot enter your body, unlike the case of non-organic coffee wherein these toxic chemicals are present. That does not mean that Organic Coffee can be drunk in excessive quantities.</div>

<strong>Other Benefits:</strong> The other benefits of Organic Coffee relate to the environment. Since no chemicals are used in its production, processing and packaging; it does not pollute the environment. There is also no risk of smaller animals like birds, rodents, or squirrels, etc. being poisoned and killed due to these toxic chemicals. Therefore, this coffee helps a lot to preserve the biotic environment and its healthy balance.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Processing: </strong>Organic Coffee is processed using dry milling or wet milling. Dry milling basically means separating beans from dried coffee berries. This drying, again, is done by machine drying or sun drying. Wet Milling is costly, lengthy and not environmentally friendly (uses a lot of fresh water to wash) unless it is applied to coffee beans, where no chemicals are involved. However, it is one of the surest ways of producing high-quality gourmet beans and big firms often use this method.</div>

<strong>Roasting</strong>: Organic coffee roasters are used for sorting, roasting, cooling, stabilizing, and packing. Roasting of coffee can be done by drum roasting or hot air roasting<strong>. </strong>Organic coffee roasters take care that no chemical salts, gases, flavors or additives are added in this stage to influence the taste and flavor. Green Mountain Coffee Roasters and Dean’s Beans Coffee Roasters are two trusted names who roast coffee.</div>

Organic Coffee is available in many varieties, based on the method of farming and its contribution towards the environment. Here are some of them:</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Organic Shade-Grown Coffee: </strong>This variety is grown in the natural shade of tropical forests without clearing land for farming. Growth is slow, but the coffee is tastier and more flavored. The biggest benefit of this coffee is that no forests are cut down for this and, of course, no chemicals are used. It is richer in taste than its regular counterpart. There are a few varieties of Organic Shade-Grown Coffee, mainly named after their various styles of farming. They include organic rustic, organic traditional polyculture and organic specialized or reduced shade. It has less availability and hence priced higher than the other types of coffee.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Organic Bird-Friendly Coffee:</strong> This is almost same as Organic Shade-Grown Coffee, with the difference that this is particularly concerned with preserving the natural habitat of birds.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Organic Kona Coffee:</strong> This Organic Kona Coffee is grown on fertile volcanic soil of the Kona region in Hawaii. Organic Kona Coffee is produced in farms that do not use chemical fertilizers and chemical pesticides. They are absolutely dependent on the fertility of the soil (enriched by volcanic ash and lava), organic fertilizers, and biotic pest control methods. It has a distinct taste and flavor due to the climate and soil in that region. While Organic Kona Coffee itself is a delicacy, the Pea-Berry variety is the best. Always look for the certificate for authenticity and “100% Organic Kona Coffee” on the packets. Many fraudsters will be trying to sell normal coffee under the Kona tag.</div>

<strong>Organic Green Coffee: </strong>Organic Green Coffee is the Green Coffee that is obtained from coffee plants that are grown organically. This coffee is obtained from raw coffee beans which are not roasted. No chemicals are used in processing (fermentation/washing etc.). Taste of organic green coffee depends on good soil, right altitude, climate and processing.It is a rich source of antioxidants and contains Chlorogenic Acid, which is believed to be far more effective in neutralizing free radicals than the antioxidants in green tea. It boosts metabolism and the presence of caffeic acid helps energize the body after fatigue. Some varieties include Blue Mountain Cenaproc, Colonial Caranavi, Peaberry, Kenya AA, Tarrazu, Yirgacheffe, Antigua, and Altura.</div>

The varieties discussed above also belong to certain species of coffee. The following are the two main cultivars of coffee, grown in different regions.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Coffea Arabica:</strong> This is the most widely used species. Almost all the coffee beans that come from Arabia, Eastern Africa, Asia, and Latin America belong to varieties that fall under this species categorization. People have their own opinions, but Arabica is considered far superior in quality to Robusta.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Coffea Canephora (Robusta):</strong> Varieties of this species are spread over the Central and Western Africa.</div>

All the varieties of Organic Coffee mentioned above can be used in making Organic Espresso Coffee. Furthermore, when these varieties are purchased through a Fair Trade Organization, they are called Organic Fair Trade Coffee.</div>

Organic Fair Trade Coffee is a movement or way of selling or marketing organic coffee to ensure that a justified portion of money from the sales of organic coffee should go to the farmers that actually produce it. There are various fair trade organizations and bodies through which, if purchases are made, then farmers get paid appropriately. They are also paid a premium against a price rise of coffee around the world. The farmers are given an indirect share in the international business this way by bypassing the brokers. To achieve this target, the sale of Organic Fair Trade Coffee is guided by certain principles laid down by various fair trade organizations and bodies. FINE is the most widely recognized Fair Trade Governing/Promoting body, which is mainly operational in Europe. Besides governing, monitoring and promoting fair trade, these bodies also do the certification of fair trade articles. Therefore, all the Organic Fair Trade Coffee that is selling in the market needs to be certified by one of these certifying bodies, as well as by an agency that certifies Organic products.</div>

Organic Gourmet Coffee</h3>

Organic Gourmet Coffee is premium quality coffee (predominantly some of the best varieties of Coffea Arabica) that is grown organically, meaning without using any artificial chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or weedicides and are flavored with different organic flavors like vanilla, mint, almond, mocha, caramel, and amaretto to suit different tastes.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
Organic Gourmet Coffee is classified depending upon flavour, content of caffeine, processing or milling. Flavoring can be done by spraying organicflavors or soak the beans in them. It can also be done while brewing or adding flavours to ground coffee. Based on content of caffeine it can be divided into two types, namely caffeinated and decaffeinated. From the point of view of health, the decaffeinated one will be the best, but you may have to compromise with the taste and flavor slightly. You should choose a good variety like Blue Mountain, Kona, Columbia Supremo, Pea Berry, Sidamo, or Tarrazu. That will give you a good taste as well as good flavour.</div>

An Organic Espresso Coffee is the espresso coffee made with organic coffee. Therefore, any organic coffee can be made into Organic Espresso Coffee, provided that it is perfectly roasted, suitably ground, you have an espresso machine, and the temperature of the hot water used is just right. Make sure to use organic cream and milk. Use light roasted beans as very dark roasted beans lose their aroma and taste. Preferably, fresh ground Organic Coffee should be used for Organic Espresso Coffee. It’s easily available at outlets such as Starbucks however, if you need it more frequently at your home, you will need a good Espresso Machine, a bag of good organic coffee beans.</div>

2) Always buy “100% Organic Coffee” beans. Do not compromise with “Organic” or “Contains Organic” types.</div>

3) Look for the uniformity in size, shape, and color of the beans. The presence of discolored, wrinkled, and smaller beans in the lot indicates poor quality.</div>

5) Never store your coffee, ground or whole beans, in your fridge.</div>

Availability of Organic Coffee</h2>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
The availability of Organic Coffee is pretty good, but it is nowhere near that of non-organic regular coffee. The basic reason behind this is low production. As no artificial fertilizers are used on it, the production is quite low. However, awareness is growing, the demand is increasing, and so is production as more and more farmers are taking up organic farming. If it is not available in your locality, you can use the phone or Internet to order a dealer to ship some for you.</div>
<h2 style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #333333; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 28px; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: -0.03em; line-height: 1.2em; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px;">

Availability affects consumption! Naturally, the consumption of Organic Coffee is far less than that of regular coffee. The good news is that it is increasing with the awareness. The production of Organic Coffee is less and its demand is growing. So, it is obvious that it is costlier than regular coffee.</div>

When it comes to making profits from your organic café, you must consider saving those extra dollars you pay on buying organic coffee at retail prices. You can save by buying your organic coffee in bulk. To order the right quantity of bulk Organic Coffee, you first need to work out your café’s consumption, season etc. EOQ or Economic Order Quantity is mostly used to determine the optimum order quantity. It helps in minimizing shipping and other charges, making maximum utilization of the storage space available to you. There is a mathematical formula for Economic Order Quantity, given below.</div>

Organic food is extremely popular and everyone wants to know about their benefits. The sweeping public opinion that organic food is healthier than conventional food is quite strong, and is the main reason for increase in its demand in its demand over the past 5-6 years. Organic Facts is a strong proponent of organic food; however, this website also believes in putting across the most accurate facts to its visitors.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
This article will explain what organic food is, how it is beneficial and what are the standards for the same. This is to substantiate the public opinion that we have on organic food being good for the health.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
First of all, there is a small amount of scientific evidence to show that organic food is better in quality than conventional food. Scientific research conducted thus far on various organic food items has not been able to give strong evidence about the superiority of organic food over non-organic food. This is more so because bulk of the scientific research is based on funding provided by the governments and industry.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
As a result, even the FDA and the USDA clearly mention that non-organic food is as healthy as organic food. However, there are some scientific studies that have proved organic milk and organic tomatoes to be better than the non-organic varieties. Studies are also ongoing about a variety of other types of organic food that may have additional health benefits compared to the non-organic varieties.</div>

<strong>Organic Milk</strong></div>

Recent research conducted on organic milk has shown that it has more antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids, CLA, and vitamins than non-organic milk. According to the researchers at the Danish Institute of Agricultural Research at the University of Aberdeen and the Institute of Grassland and Environmental Research, organic milk is healthier than non-organic milk, since organic cows are pasture grazed which results in the better quality of milk.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Organic Tomatoes</strong></div>

According to a 10-year study conducted by the University of California, Davis, organic tomatoes are produced in an environment that has a lower nutrient supply since nitrogen-rich chemical fertilizers are not added. This leads to an excessive formation of antioxidants, such as quercetin (79% higher) and kaempferol (97% higher) in organic tomatoes. As we all know, antioxidants are good for health and help in reducing heart disease and the chances of developing cancer.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
These studies have increased the hopes of numerous people who strongly believe that mankind should stop using chemical fertilizers and pesticides and shift to more sustainable organic farming practices. There are many studies that prove that there is some pesticide and fertilizer contamination in non-organic food, and there are others which claim that organic food is not healthy because they contain harmful bacteria and viruses because of not using strong chemicals to protect against these toxic substances. However, none of these studies that show chemical contamination or the presence of bacteria/viruses show any direct impact on the overall health of individuals.</div>

Health Benefits of Organic Food</h2>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
In general, organic food consumers, manufacturers, and farmers strongly believe that organic food has the following benefits compared to conventional food.<br />
<strong><br />Antioxidant Capacity</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
A number of studies have been completed regarding the effects of antioxidants derived from organic foods on your overall health, and the predominant results have shown that antioxidants tend to have more of an impact when they come from organic foods. This may be due to the fact that foreign chemicals are not negatively interacting with the different vitamins, minerals, and organic compounds that are so essential for the positive impact of fruits and vegetables in the prevention of things like cancer, heart disease, premature aging, vision problems, and cognitive malfunction. <span style="color: #222222;">Recent research suggests that </span><span style="color: black;">choosing organic food can lead to increased intake of nutritionally desirable antioxidants and reduced exposure to toxic heavy metals.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Pesticide Reduction</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
One of the major complaints that organic food consumers cite when choosing organic over non-organic is the presence of pesticides. In order to keep crops from being attacked by the natural world, including bugs, pesticides are required. Although they do a good job keeping certain pests away from the crops, they also are composed of powerful chemicals like organophosphorus. This is an unnatural mineral compound that is not required by humans, but more than 80% of this material in our bodies comes from eating pesticide-coated foods. Organophosphorus has been connected to a number of developmental problems, including autis mand ADHD, so those organic food lovers do have a pretty strong argument in this case. To be fair, many people do choose to go organic to make sure that their children grow up healthy and unaffected by the toxins of the world during their developmental years.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Heart Health</strong></div>

Increased amount of time grazing on grass also increases the amounts of CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) that can be found in the animal products. CLA is a heart-healthy fatty acid that can boost cardiovascular protection, and it is found in higher quantities in breast milk and in meat for animals that have been raised free range or cage-free.</div>

<strong>Immune System</strong></div>

In recent decades, one of the biggest projects for farmers and food growers has been genetic modification. Making tomatoes six times larger might sound like a possible option for solving some world hunger issues, but there is another side to it. Genetic modification is still in its early stages, so the long-term effects of it on human health aren’t understood as well as we would like. In animal testing genetically modified food showed a major reduction in immune system strength, an increase in birth mortality, as well as in certain sexual dysfunctions, cancers, and sensitivity to allergens. Although there are some good things about genetically modified food, organic food advocates point to the lack of concrete details about the long-term effects.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Antibiotic Resistance</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
People are very sensitive to issues of their health, and they often take precautions to make sure they remain healthy, like getting various vaccines and taking antibiotics as soon as a new strain of bacteria makes them ill. However, non-organic food sources, particularly livestock and feed houses, also use antibiotics to feed their animals. This extra dose of antibiotics may actually be weakening our immune system by basically overdosing on antibiotics, thereby reshaping our immune system so many times that it will eventually be unable to defend itself. Organic food growers and dairy farmers do not use antibiotics in their processes.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">

Since organic food is not prepared using chemical fertilizers, it does not contain any traces of these strong chemicals and might not affect the human body in negative ways. Natural fertilizers, like manure, work perfectly fine, and organic farmers are happy to use this smellier, yet safer, form of fertilizer.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">

Some people strongly believe that organic food tastes better than conventional food. The prominent reason for this belief is that it is produced using organic means of production. Furthermore, organic food is often sold locally, resulting in availability of fresh produce in the market, which usually does taste better than produce that has been frozen, shipped, and transported across long distances.</div>

Normally people believe that organic food is better for your health than conventional food. However, the USDA and the FDA clearly state that conventional food is as healthy as organic food. Scientific research has also not been able to conclusively prove that organic food is healthier than conventional food because there has been counter research too to prove conventional food is better than organic one. The exceptions are organic milk and organic tomatoes. Recent studies on organic milk and organic tomatoes have shown that these food products are healthier than non-organic milk and non-organic tomatoes, respectively.</div>

Organic food can be identified with the help of an organic logo on the packet. Companies, farmers, manufacturers, and suppliers, which follow all the norms set by a certifying body of their region, can put a logo of that certifying body on their food items.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">

No, since the mode of production and processing is different for different food items, the standards are also different. For example, the standards for organic honey production are different from the standards for organic milk production or organic coconut oil production. Note that the standards vary from region to region. Some countries may follow a uniform set of codes. For example, about 18 countries follow the rules set by the International Olive Oil Council for organic olive oil production. However, there are some countries such as the US, which have their own standards for organic olive oil production.</div>

<strong>Should I look for the word organic on the food item?</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
Yes, you should look for the word “Organic”. However, you should also check the logo of the certifying body.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">
It is illegal to sell non-organic food with an organic label. However, there have been cases of fraud before, which when brought to the attention of the authorities, have been dealt with strongly. Therefore, you should always check the logo of the certifying body properly and you should buy organic food items that have an authentic label on them.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">

Yes, organic food normally costs 20% to 100% more than conventional food. Organic food production is generally labour-intentsive and involves the use of organic fertilizers and organic pesticides, which are more expensive than chemical fertilizers and pesticides. That is why it costs more.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">

You can also produce organic food in your garden, organic gardening is a very common hobby for many people. you do not need any permission to produce it. However, if you intend to sell organic food, you need to follow the guidelines set by a certifying agency and get approval from them for using their logo.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">

No, organic food refers to food items prepared without using chemicals. Natural food refers to food items that are only minimally processed.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">

Many parents believe that organic food is safer for their children, since it does not contain any chemical pesticides and fertilizers. However, there is no scientific research to prove this.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fdfff7; color: #666666; font-family: "source sans pro", arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; padding-top: 4px; text-align: justify;">

So far, scientific research has proven this only for organic milk and organic tomatoes. Organic milk has more omega-3, CLA, vitamins, and antioxidants than non-organic milk. Similarly, organic tomatoes have more antioxidants than non-organic tomatoes. <span style="color: #222222;">Recent research suggests that </span><span style="color: black;">choosing organic food can lead to increased intake of nutritionally desirable antioxidants and reduced exposure to toxic heavy metals.</span></div>

LOBSTER</div>

Lobster is luxurious. Especially on the grill, where the high heat turns the lobsters’ shells a rosy red and steams the tender flesh within to sweet perfection.

CHICKEN WINGS</div>
</div>
<div class="slide-text" style="line-height: 1.6em; margin-top: 0.8em;">
<br />
Deep-fried, greasy bar wings are over-rated. Check out Elizabeth Karmel’s recipe. She’s the executive chef of Hill Country Chicken in New York City. Her easy-as-all-hell recipe pre-soaks wings in Louisiana hot sauce and then cooks them on the grill, where the circulating high heat turns the skin crispy and the flame adds that something extra your oven (or a deep fryer) never can.

To make bacon even better, toss it on the grill. It gives the pork an extra-smoky flavor that only need some freshly ground black pepper and finely chopped fresh rosemary to make it some of the best you’ve ever had. Eat it with eggs, use it as a solid foundation to the ultimate BLT, or just snack on it as an appetizer as you’re waiting for the rest of dinner to grill. Click here for the recipe.</div>

RED PEPPERS</div>
</div>
<div class="slide-text" style="line-height: 1.6em; margin-top: 0.8em;">
<br />
There’s something about the char of the grill that sweetens and brightens vegetables to perfection. Grilled summer squash, zucchini, red onions, tomatoes, eggplant, potatoes—but none exemplify the tasty transformation more than grilled red peppers. The grill imbues red peppers with a subtle smokiness and a tender texture that tastes amazing atop fresh bread, summer salads, and seasonal salsas. Go on, grill ‘em.</div>

CORN ON THE COB</div>
</div>
<div class="slide-text" style="line-height: 1.6em; margin-top: 0.8em;">
<br />
Skip the big pot-o-water method and use your grill to cook corn on the cob. The fire has the power to roast corn in its flavorful husk and finish it off with a slight char—things the lazy-man’s boiling method cannot achieve. Skeptical? Try this recipe for grilled corn on the cob and I bet you’ll never go back to the boil.</div>

SQUID</div>
</div>
<div class="slide-text" style="line-height: 1.6em; margin-top: 0.8em;">
<br />
Grilled squid, or <i>yaki ika</i>, is a favorite in Japan, where pushcart vendors hawk the torpedo-shaped cephalopods fresh off charcoal fires, according to chef Tadashi Ono in his new cookbook <i>The Japanese Grill</i>. Grilled correctly, squid takes on new life after it hits the flame. The meat plumps up nicely and becomes tender and luscious—nothing like the rubbery squid you’ve had in fried calamari. Try it, you’ll like it.</div>

PORK SHOULDER</div>
</div>
<div class="slide-text" style="line-height: 1.6em; margin-top: 0.8em;">
<br />
Use indirect heat grilling to cook up slow-cooked pork. Our recipe combines the bite of bourbon with the sweetness of soda and the unctuousness of this luscious cut. Serve the pork shredded and stuffed inside a hamburger bun for the ultimate pulled-pork sandwich, or straight-up with a side of grilled summer corn or roasted red peppers. </div>

Even if you’ve never grilled anything in your life, you can grill clams. They tell you when they’re ready to eat. All you have to do is buy a dozen or two, give them a good scrub under cold water, pop them on a high-heat grill, and when they open, they’re done. <i>That’s it</i>. </div>

We conclude with a recipe that showcases the glory of the grill—a culinary coda designed to display why grilling is the ultimate form of cooking: the lamb chop. Go ahead, eat the meat straight off the bone. Then, because you’ll feel indebted after the experience, go give your grill a thank-you cleaning.</div>

Walk into an average grocery store and you face a choice—47,000 choices of products, actually. And their labels advertise terms such as low fat, high fiber, free range, and organic.</div>
<div style="background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #393939; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", "DejaVu Serif", serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 0px;">
Some matter, some don't. But those labels aren't even the most confusing part: Many scientists say organic is more nutritious than conventionally grown food, while others say it's not.</div>
<div style="background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #393939; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", "DejaVu Serif", serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 0px;">
The back and forth is enough to make us "eat what's available when we're hungry and try not to think too much about it because it's all so disheartening and confusing," writes Maria Rodale in her new book, Organic Manifesto.</div>

Sadly, not buying organic food is a mistake that you—as a man—can no longer afford to make. According to new studies, eating organic foods can help you build more muscle and burn more fat, not to mention protect the environment from harmful pesticides and increase your chances of siring healthy offspring (sons in particular). </div>

More nutritious?<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
Once found only in health food stores, organic food is now a regular feature at most supermarkets. And that's created a bit of a dilemma in the produce aisle.</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
On one hand, you have a conventionally grown apple. On the other, you have one that's organic. Both apples are firm, shiny and red. Both provide vitamins and fiber, and both are free of fat, sodium and cholesterol. Which should you choose? Get the facts before you shop.</div>
<div id="adsmobileBottom" style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; outline: none; position: relative;">
</div>
<div class="auto-mobile" style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; outline: none; position: relative;">
</div>

Conventional vs. organic farming</h3>
<div class="auto" style="color: #111111; float: right; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-left: 24px; outline: none; position: relative; width: 222px;">
</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
The word "organic" refers to the way farmers grow and process agricultural products, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, dairy products and meat. Organic farming practices are designed to encourage soil and water conservation and reduce pollution.</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
Farmers who grow organic produce don't use conventional methods to fertilize and control weeds. Examples of organic farming practices include using natural fertilizers to feed soil and plants, and using crop rotation or mulch to manage weeds.</div>

Organic or not? Check the label</h3>
<div class="auto" style="color: #111111; float: right; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-left: 24px; outline: none; position: relative; width: 222px;">
</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has established an organic certification program that requires all organic foods to meet strict government standards. These standards regulate how such foods are grown, handled and processed.</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
Any product labeled as organic must be USDA certified. Only producers who sell less than $5,000 a year in organic foods are exempt from this certification; however, they're still required to follow the USDA's standards for organic foods.</div>
<div id="adsmobileBottom" style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; outline: none; position: relative;">
</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
If a food bears a USDA Organic label, it means it's produced and processed according to the USDA standards. The seal is voluntary, but many organic producers use it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-yMlOVNzbwbI/WCISrQSragI/AAAAAAAAAGU/t-IDKJEpGXso2zuBwJee_kE29_C5UQdMwCLcB/s1600/fn6_usdaorganicseal.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Organic foods: Are they safer?

More nutritious?" /></a></div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
Products that are completely organic — such as fruits, vegetables, eggs or other single-ingredient foods — are labeled 100 percent organic and can carry the USDA seal.</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
Foods that have more than one ingredient, such as breakfast cereal, can use the USDA organic seal plus the following wording, depending on the number of organic ingredients:</div>
<div id="adsmobileBottom" style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; outline: none; position: relative;">
</div>
<ul style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px 0px 12px 24px; padding: 0px;">
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px;"><b>100 percent organic.</b> To use this phrase, products must be either completely organic or made of all organic ingredients.</li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px;"><b>Organic.</b> Products must be at least 95 percent organic to use this term.</li>
</ul>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
Products that contain at least 70 percent organic ingredients may say "made with organic ingredients" on the label, but may not use the seal. Foods containing less than 70 percent organic ingredients can't use the seal or the word "organic" on their product labels. They can include the organic items in their ingredient list, however.</div>
<div class="auto-mobile" style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; outline: none; position: relative;">
</div>
<h3 style="color: #54585a; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 21px; line-height: 25px; margin: 0px 0px 12px; padding: 0px;">
Do 'organic' and 'natural' mean the same thing?</h3>
<div class="auto" style="color: #111111; float: right; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-left: 24px; outline: none; position: relative; width: 222px;">
</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
No, "natural" and "organic" are not interchangeable terms. You may see "natural" and other terms such as "all natural," "free-range" or "hormone-free" on food labels. These descriptions must be truthful, but don't confuse them with the term "organic." Only foods that are grown and processed according to USDA organic standards can be labeled organic.</div>
<h3 style="color: #54585a; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 21px; line-height: 25px; margin: 0px 0px 12px; padding: 0px;">
Organic food: Is it more nutritious?</h3>
<div class="auto" style="color: #111111; float: right; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-left: 24px; outline: none; position: relative; width: 222px;">
</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
Probably not, but the answer isn't yet clear. A recent study examined the past 50 years' worth of scientific articles about the nutrient content of organic and conventional foods. The researchers concluded that organically and conventionally produced foodstuffs are not significantly different in their nutrient content.</div>
<div id="adsmobileBottom" style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; outline: none; position: relative;">

Organic food: Other considerations</h3>
<div class="auto" style="color: #111111; float: right; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-left: 24px; outline: none; position: relative; width: 222px;">
</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
Many factors influence the decision to choose organic food. Some people choose organic food because they prefer the taste. Yet others opt for organic because of concerns such as:</div>
<ul style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px 0px 12px 24px; padding: 0px;">
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px;"><strong>Pesticides.</strong> Conventional growers use synthetic pesticides to protect their crops from molds, insects and diseases. When farmers spray pesticides, this can leave residue on produce. Organic farmers use insect traps, careful crop selection (disease-resistant varieties), predator insects or beneficial microorganisms instead to control crop-damaging pests. Some people buy organic food to limit their exposure to these residues. Organic produce typically carries significantly fewer pesticide residues than does conventional produce. However, residues on most products — both organic and nonorganic — don't exceed government safety thresholds.</li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px;"><strong>Food additives.</strong> Organic regulations ban or severely restrict the use of food additives, processing aids (substances used during processing, but not added directly to food) and fortifying agents commonly used in nonorganic foods, including preservatives, artificial sweeteners, colorings and flavorings, and monosodium glutamate.</li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px;"><strong>Environment.</strong> Some people buy organic food for environmental reasons. Organic farming practices are designed to benefit the environment by reducing pollution and conserving water and soil quality.</li>
</ul>
<div id="adsmobileBottom" style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; outline: none; position: relative;">
</div>
<div class="auto-mobile" style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; outline: none; position: relative;">

Are there downsides to buying organic?</h3>
<div class="auto" style="color: #111111; float: right; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-left: 24px; outline: none; position: relative; width: 222px;">
</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
One common concern with organic food is cost. Organic foods typically cost more than do their conventional counterparts. Higher prices are due, in part, to more-expensive farming practices.</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
Because organic fruits and vegetables aren't treated with waxes or preservatives, they may spoil faster. Also, some organic produce may look less than perfect — odd shapes, varying colors or smaller sizes. However, organic foods must meet the same quality and safety standards as those of conventional foods.</div>
<div id="adsmobileBottom" style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; outline: none; position: relative;">

Food safety tips</h3>
<div class="auto" style="color: #111111; float: right; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-left: 24px; outline: none; position: relative; width: 222px;">
</div>
<div style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
Whether you go totally organic or opt to mix conventional and organic foods, be sure to keep these tips in mind:</div>
<ul style="color: #111111; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px 0px 12px 24px; padding: 0px;">
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px;"><strong>Select a variety of foods from a variety of sources.</strong> This will give you a better mix of nutrients and reduce your likelihood of exposure to a single pesticide.</li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px;"><strong>Buy fruits and vegetables in season when possible.</strong> To get the freshest produce, ask your grocer what day new produce arrives. Or buy food from your local farmers market.</li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px;"><strong>Read food labels carefully.</strong> Just because a product says it's organic or contains organic ingredients doesn't necessarily mean it's a healthier alternative. Some organic products may still be high in sugar, salt, fat or calories.</li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px;"><strong>Wash and scrub fresh fruits and vegetables thoroughly under running water.</strong> Washing helps remove dirt, bacteria and traces of chemicals from the surface of fruits and vegetables. Not all pesticide residues can be removed by washing, though. You can also peel fruits and vegetables, but peeling can mean losing some fiber and nutrients.</li>
</ul>

What does "organic" mean?</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
The term “organic” refers to the way agricultural products are grown and processed. While the regulations vary from country to country, in the U.S., organic crops must be grown without the use of synthetic pesticides, bioengineered genes (GMOs), petroleum-based fertilizers, and sewage sludge-based fertilizers.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
Organic livestock raised for meat, eggs, and dairy products must have access to the outdoors and be given organic feed. They may not be given antibiotics, growth hormones, or any animal by-products.</div>

The benefits of organic food</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
How your food is grown or raised can have a major impact on your mental and emotional health as well as the environment. Organic foods often have more beneficial nutrients, such as antioxidants, than their conventionally-grown counterparts and people with allergies to foods, chemicals, or preservatives often find their symptoms lessen or go away when they eat only organic foods.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Organic produce contains fewer pesticides.</strong> Chemicals such as fungicides, herbicides, and insecticides are widely used in conventional agriculture and residues remain on (and in) the food we eat.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Organic food is often fresher </strong>because it doesn’t contain preservatives that make it last longer. Organic produce is often (but not always, so watch where it is from) produced on smaller farms near where it is sold.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Organic farming is better for the environment.</strong> Organic farming practices reduce pollution, conserve water, reduce soil erosion, increase soil fertility, and use less energy. Farming without pesticides is also better for nearby birds and animals as well as people who live close to farms.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Organically raised animals are NOT given antibiotics, growth hormones, or fed animal byproducts.</strong> Feeding livestock animal byproducts increases the risk of mad cow disease (BSE) and the use of antibiotics can create antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria. Organically-raised animals are given more space to move around and access to the outdoors, which help to keep them healthy.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Organic meat and milk are richer in certain nutrients.</strong> Results of a 2016 European study show that levels of certain nutrients, including omega-3 fatty acids, were up to 50 percent higher in organic meat and milk than in conventionally raised versions.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Organic food is GMO-free. </strong>Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) or genetically engineered (GE) foods are plants whose DNA has been altered in ways that cannot occur in nature or in traditional crossbreeding, most commonly in order to be<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"> </strong>resistant to pesticides or produce an insecticide.</div>

Organic food vs. locally-grown food</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
Unlike organic standards, there is no specific definition for “local food”. It could be grown in your local community, your state, your region, or your country. During large portions of the year it is usually possible to find food grown close to home at places such as a farmer’s market.</div>
<h3 style="background: rgb(238, 238, 238); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1pc; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; line-height: 1.3em; margin: 1em 0px; padding: 3px 3px 4px 7px;">
The benefitis of locally grown food</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Financial:</strong> Money stays within the local economy. More money goes directly to the farmer, instead of to things like marketing and distribution.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Transportation:</strong> In the U.S., for example, the average distance a meal travels from the farm to the dinner plate is over 1,500 miles. Produce must be picked while still unripe and then gassed to "ripen" it after transport. Or the food is highly processed in factories using preservatives, irradiation, and other means to keep it stable for transport.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Freshness:</strong> Local food is harvested when ripe and thus fresher and full of flavor.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
Small local farmers often use organic methods but sometimes cannot afford to become certified organic. Visit a farmer’s market and talk with the farmers to find out what methods they use.</div>
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" id="gmo" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #337ab7; text-decoration: none;"></a><h2 style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(235, 215, 207); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #ad5836; font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 22px; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.385em; margin: 10px 0px; padding: 0px 26px 0px 0px;">
Understanding GMOs</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
The ongoing debate about the effects of GMOs on health and the environment is a controversial one. In most cases, GMOs are engineered to make food crops resistant to herbicides and/or to produce an insecticide. For example, much of the sweet corn consumed in the U.S. is genetically engineered to be resistant to the herbicide Roundup and to produce its own insecticide, Bt Toxin.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
GMOs are also commonly found in U.S. crops such as soybeans, alfalfa, squash, zucchini, papaya, and canola, and are present in many breakfast cereals and much of the processed food that we eat. If the ingredients on a package include corn syrup or soy lecithin, chances are it contains GMOs.</div>
<h3 style="background: rgb(238, 238, 238); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1pc; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; line-height: 1.3em; margin: 1em 0px; padding: 3px 3px 4px 7px;">
GMOs and pesticides</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
The use of toxic herbicides like Roundup (glyphosate) has increased 15 times since GMOs were introduced. While the World Health Organization announced that glyphosate is “probably carcinogenic to humans,” there is still some controversy over the level of health risks posed by the use of pesticides.</div>
<div class="info box" style="background-image: linear-gradient(rgb(217, 237, 247) 0px, rgb(185, 222, 240) 100%); background-repeat: repeat-x; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(154, 207, 234); box-shadow: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.247059) 0px 1px 0px inset, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0470588) 0px 1px 2px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 15px; text-shadow: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2) 0px 1px 0px;">
<h4 style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(106, 174, 207); box-sizing: border-box; color: #31708f; font-family: inherit; font-size: 18px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.1; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 3px;">
Are GMOs safe?</h4>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the biotech companies that engineer GMOs insist they are safe, many food safety advocates point out that no long term studies have ever been conducted to confirm the safety of GMO use, while some animal studies have indicated that consuming GMOs may cause internal organ damage, slowed brain growth, and thickening of the digestive tract.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
GMOs have been linked to increased food allergens and gastro-intestinal problems in humans. While many people think that altering the DNA of a plant or animal can increase the risk of cancer, the research has so far proven inconclusive.</div>
</div>
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" id="pesticides" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #337ab7; text-decoration: none;"></a><h2 style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(235, 215, 207); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #ad5836; font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 22px; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.385em; margin: 10px 0px; padding: 0px 26px 0px 0px;">
Does organic mean pesticide-free?</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
As mentioned above, one of the primary benefits of eating organic is lower levels of pesticides. However, despite popular belief, organic farms do use pesticides. The difference is that they only use naturally-derived pesticides, rather than the synthetic pesticides used on conventional commercial farms. Natural pesticides are believed to be less toxic, however, some have been found to have health risks. That said, your exposure to harmful pesticides will be lower when eating organic.</div>
<h3 style="background: rgb(238, 238, 238); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1pc; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; line-height: 1.3em; margin: 1em 0px; padding: 3px 3px 4px 7px;">
What are the possible risks of pesticides?</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
Most of us have an accumulated build-up of pesticide exposure in our bodies due to numerous years of exposure. This chemical "body burden" as it is medically known could lead to health issues such as headaches, birth defects, and added strain on weakened immune systems.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
Some studies have indicated that the use of pesticides even at low doses can <strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">increase the risk of certain cancers</strong>, such as leukemia, lymphoma, brain tumors, breast cancer and prostate cancer.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Children and fetuses are most vulnerable</strong> to pesticide exposure because their immune systems, bodies, and brains are still developing. Exposure at an early age may cause developmental delays, behavioral disorders, autism, immune system harm, and motor dysfunction.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Pregnant women are more vulnerable</strong> due to the added stress pesticides put on their already taxed organs. Plus, pesticides can be passed from mother to child in the womb, as well as through breast milk.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
The widespread use of pesticides has also led to the emergence of <strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">“super weeds”</strong> and <strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">“super bugs,”</strong> which can only be killed with extremely toxic poisons like 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (a major ingredient in Agent Orange).</div>

Does washing and peeling produce get rid of pesticides?</h4>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
Rinsing reduces but does not eliminate pesticides. Peeling sometimes helps, but valuable nutrients often go down the drain with the skin. The best approach: eat a varied diet, wash and scrub all produce thoroughly, and buy organic when possible.</div>
</div>

The best bang for your buck when shopping organic</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
Organic food is often more expensive than conventionally-grown food. But if you set some priorities, it may be possible to purchase organic food and stay within your food budget.</div>
<h3 style="background: rgb(238, 238, 238); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1pc; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; line-height: 1.3em; margin: 1em 0px; padding: 3px 3px 4px 7px;">
Know your produce pesticide levels</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
Some types of conventionally-grown produce are much higher in pesticides than others, and should be avoided. Others are low enough that buying non-organic is relatively safe. The Environmental Working Group, a nonprofit organization that analyzes the results of government pesticide testing in the U.S., offers a annually-updated list that can help guide your choices.</div>

Buy organic meat, eggs, and dairy if you can afford to</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
While prominent organizations such as the American Heart Association maintain that eating saturated fat from any source increases the risk of heart disease, other nutrition experts maintain that eating organic grass-fed meat and organic dairy products doesn’t carry the same risks. It’s not the saturated fat that’s the problem, they say, but the unnatural diet of an industrially-raised animal that includes corn, hormones, and medication.</div>

Other ways to keep the cost of organic food within your budget</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Shop at farmers' markets.</strong> Many cities, as well as small towns, host a weekly farmers' market, where local farmers sell their produce at an open-air street market, often at a discount to grocery stores.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Join a food co-op. </strong>A natural foods co-op, or cooperative grocery store typically offers lower prices to members, who pay an annual fee to belong</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Join a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm,</strong> in which individuals and families join up to purchase "shares" of produce in bulk, directly from a local farm. Local <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">and</em> organic!</div>

Organic food buying tips</h3>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Buy in season</strong> – Fruits and vegetables are cheapest and freshest when they are in season. Find out when produce is delivered to your market so you're buying the freshest food possible.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Shop around</strong> – Compare the price of organic items at the grocery store, the farmers’ market and other venues (even the freezer aisle).</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Remember that organic doesn’t always equal healthy</strong> –Making junk food sound healthy is a common marketing ploy in the food industry but organic baked goods, desserts, and snacks are usually still very high in sugar, salt, fat, or calories. It pays to read food labels carefully.</div>
<div class="alert alert-info" style="background-color: #d9edf7; background-image: linear-gradient(rgb(217, 237, 247) 0px, rgb(185, 222, 240) 100%); background-repeat: repeat-x; border-radius: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(154, 207, 234); box-shadow: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.247059) 0px 1px 0px inset, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0470588) 0px 1px 2px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #31708f; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 15px; text-shadow: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2) 0px 1px 0px;">

Why is organic food often more expensive?</h4>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin: 0px;">
Organic food is more labor intensive since the farmers do not use pesticides, chemical fertilizers, or drugs. Organic certification is expensive and organic feed for animals can cost twice as much. Organic farms tend to be smaller than conventional farms, which means fixed costs and overhead must be distributed across smaller produce volumes without government subsidies.</div>

The soil has to be thoroughly drained and processed and it needs to be exposed to the sun. This plant requires constant watering and moisture, so you may have to consider artificial watering as well.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

However, if you plant them directly to the ground, select a section that has a 2 ½ feet diameter and a vertical space for the bush of about one foot deep. Dig up half the soil and fill in with equal amounts of already watered sphagnum. Afterwards, mix it well.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

If you purchase containerized plants, take the plant out and roughen up the external layer of the roots. Set the top soil line of the plant about 1-2 inches higher than the existing ground and firm around root ball. Pile up the soil around the roots. Make sure that you use lots of water during the blueberry growth. The best way is to find an area where irrigation is available.</span></div>

In order to preserve an excellent health, your pH levels ought to be perfectly balanced. Many people are unaware of how much their pH levels are actually inadequate.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
During the process of eating, our body tends to reduce the food into a sort of ash. The pH levels of this ash are either acidic or alkaline. The ideal pH levels in the body are moderately alkaline (7.635). Determined by what your nutrition is like, you can either preserve the ideal alkaline level or you can turn the pH level in your body to acidic. The organic food substances are not always in charge of reducing acids – sometimes that role belongs to the inorganic food substances such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, sulphur and phosphorous.</div>

Since we were little we were taught that butter is an unhealthy food and that we should always be careful to consume ‘lighter’ margarine products. However, this may not be entirely true.</div>

If you are careful with the type of butter you are eating, it can become a very healthy practice. It contains around 400 separate fatty acids, which makes it a complex aft, and is also rich in fat-soluble vitamins. These positive fatty acids provide extra energy for the body and posses certain biological activity as well.</div>

Butter fatty acids are closely connected to physiology and biochemistry and this provides numerous healthy benefits; the fatty acid CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) is just one example of them. This fat is considered to be directly related to the fat loss and research show that it can have mighty effects on health. CLA is found in grass-fed butter is present five times more than it is butter from grain-fed cows.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Arteries and blood vessels can be severely damaged as a result of the moderately hydrogenated fatty acids contained in margarine. They have tendency to lower the beneficial cholesterol, and increase the triglycerides and lipoproteins blood levels, which causes cardiovascular diseases and irregularities.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Omega-3 acids and vitamins K2 are more contained in butter from grass-fed cows is. Recent studies have shown no relation between saturated fat consumption and heart disease. As a result, grass-fed butter is definitely a more nutritive choice.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
One 2010 study analyzed the CLA levels in fat tissue of 1813 individuals suffering from minor heart attacks and compared them to subjects who did not experience heart problems whatsoever. The volunteers were divided in five sections, beginning from the lowest and ending with the highest level of CLA.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Since the levels of the fatty acids are a trustworthy indicator for the intake of fatty dairy products, the conclusions were the following: People who consumed more full-fat dairy had lower risk of suffering heart failures. Furthermore, people who consumed the largest amounts of this were 49 percent less likely to face heart failure, unlike people who ate less full-fat dairy. In conclusion, butter is not as harmful as you always thought; the key is to consume the right kind of butter that fits your body.</div>

<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The health of the chicken who laid the egg mostly depends on the colour of the egg yolk. Since this is our most common breakfast, it is important that we know what kind of problems can this cause. Unfortunately, we usually use eggs which are less healthy than we expect.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

In reality, the largest number of eggs comes from chickens which are caged 24 hours a day. They are almost never exposed to sunlight and don’t even get the chance to walk around freely. The good thing about this is that now you can easily tell if your chicken was imprisoned just by looking at the egg yolk.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

This is something that commercials and media have us believe. Still, this generally means that the chicken was not quite as healthy or was fed improperly.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

Furthermore, the omega-3 fatty acids are commonly found in flax seeds and sea kelp.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

In the end, we are the ones eating them, right?! Mother Earth News and Pennsylvania State University which both enforced various egg analysis, assure that pastured eggs are richer in vitamins A, D and E. They also contain more beta-carotene and more omega-3s.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

It is a win-win situation for everyone.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

<h2 style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 25px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.4; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px; text-transform: uppercase; vertical-align: baseline;">
1. WALNUTS</h2>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-weight: normal; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 25px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Walnuts have shown to boost the thinking power and improve memory, as they have the highest level of omega-3 fatty acids among all other nuts. The omega-3 fatty acids as such have protective function on the brain as they support the function of the neurotransmitters, which are responsible for the memory and cognitive skills. Walnuts also contribute to to flow of oxygen and fights against inflammation. They have shown to contain vitamin B6 and magnesium.<br />
<br />
<h2 style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Roboto; font-size: 25px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.4; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px; text-transform: uppercase; vertical-align: baseline;">
2. WILD SALMON</h2>

You can place the neck back on if you want to, but make sure that it is not tightly taped so that you can add some water every now and then.</div>
