Organic: More Nutritious?

Lately, I have been on this search to find a study that finally concludes the age old question of whether or not organic food is in fact more nutritious. I stumbled upon this one website called Mayo Clinic. The article I found on this subject is completely unbiased and professional so I trust what they say. Here's the gist: There's really no study that has proven that organic food is more nutritious. There's also a difference between 'natural' and 'organic'. If a food is labelled 'organic', that means it meets the USDA standards. The only thing you aren't getting in your organic foods are all the pesticides. However, they are treated with environmentally safer pesticides. Also, the consumer must wary that organic food will spoil faster. So when you buy organic, be sure that you buy what you plan to eat that week and not let it sit; otherwise, you are wasting your money. click for more info... or die ------> Mayo Clinic on Organic
