Mimicking the blog eatocracy
A food
trend that has been rising in the last few years is the trend to eat organic.
The term “organic” refers to the way the food is grown which pollution and
promotes soil conservation. Organic foods also do not have pesticides or
fertilizers making them a more natural alternative. However a downside is that
organic food is more expensive. Is organic food really worth it or has it just
been hyped up?
Recently, a
health trend has been popular among many Americans who choose a healthy active
lifestyle. Whole Foods has become a growing grocery store packed with healthy
alternatives for a better lifestyle. According to a study in the Annals of
Internal Medicine, a study with 200 pages, organic food was not proven to be in
any way more nutritious than regularly grown food. This study reveals to
millions of Americans that a seemingly common belief upon additional research
may actually turn out to be false.
Even though
one study has shown that organic foods have no additional benefit, it is more
than likely that Americans will continue to purchase organic foods. As organic
foods grow in popularity more research will be conducted by scientists to
figure out whether there are benefits or not.
