Some Organic Grocery Stores in Ensenada offer items with this label...
Organic Foods.
Definition
Organic foods of plant origin are produced without the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, or genetic modification.
Organic foods of animal origin are the result of organic farming whose technique prohibits the application of hormones, antibiotics and genetic engineering.
Organic agriculture is an organic food production system that maintains the health of soils, ecosystems and people.
It is based on ecological processes, biodiversity and local climatic conditions.
Organic agriculture combines tradition, innovation and science to improve the quality of life.
Some advantages of organic foods over conventional foods are:
- They have more oligonutrients
- They have less pesticide residues
- They contain more antioxidants
- They show less traces of arsenic and cadmium
- They taste much better
Natural Products.
Definition
A natural food is a product of vegetable, animal or mineral origin, without mixing, any composition, or alteration by the human being.
But the term "natural foods" is very vague because almost all foods are obtained from Nature.
Food products labeled "natural" attract attention and give a sense of confidence.
In general, people gladly purchase products so labeled without first reading the list of food ingredients described in small print.
It is a mistaken idea to admit that foods classified as natural are not processed, that they do not contain hormones, antibiotics, sweeteners, food colors, artificial flavorings and other additives.
Conclusion
If a product whose label says "natural", but its list of ingredients says that it contains this and that, it is showing a total contradiction.
It is preferable to purchase products labeled as "organic", and that show the symbol that accredits them as such.
Organic foods are natural, but not all natural foods are organic.
