Are Organic Fruits and Vegetables Healthier?

I hear and read a lot about eating more organic fruits, vegetables and grains for better health benefits. Is going organic actually more nutritious? One of the positive aspects of organic is that organic foods are lower in synthetic pesticides and people assume for this reason alone they must be more healthy. Just how healthy organic foods are is still controversial as long as levels fall below EPA thresholds based upon the synthetic pesticide issues. Most studies have found little difference between organic and conventionally grown crops nutritional. The biggest difference is price. Organic is always more expensive.

One new report says organic foods might have more antioxidant compounds. This finding was published in the British Journal of Nutrition. Researchers concluded consumers who eat organic fruit, vegetables and cereals would get 20% to 40% more antioxidants. Of course there are many variables. It is important to note the results do not suggest you can eat less fruits and vegetables just because you choose organic. (source: Tufts University Health Newsletter)

In light of the studies done so far on organic fruits and vegetables it is my feeling they are more nutritious just based upon the higher antioxidants found in them.

If you are looking for more ways to get the recommended amount of fruits and vegetables into your daily diet, try the Life's Abundance Greens Blend and their Minerals and Antioxidant Drink Mix.

Our Greens Blend nourishes your body with a blend of raw, certified-organic grasses plus certified, organic mushrooms.
Our organic raw greens are grown in glacial soil and cut at peak harvest before the jointing stage, so you're getting the best quality greens. Because they are raw, they retain more nutrients than cooked greens.
To boost this formula’s nutrient value, we added a certified organic blend of reishi, maitake, and shitake mushrooms to provide a vegetarian source of iron and B vitamins, and also a great source of phytonutrients and antioxidants.
Life’s Abundance Greens Blend has a delicious-yet-subtle berry flavor and silky smooth texture. It mixes easily with water or into your favorite smoothie. It is one of the best tasting GMO-free greens blends on the market and leaves no "grassy" aftertaste.
At only 25 calories per serving, this nutrient dense supplement is a simple way to help you consume the recommended 5-9 servings of fruits and vegetables daily.

Americans are deficient in minerals. In fact, way back in 1936, the Department of Agriculture told congress that 99% of the population was deficient. Regrettably, there are many more recent studies confirming varying amounts of mineral deficiencies in our diet, mainly due to their depletion in our soil.
We need minerals! Vitamins cannot work properly without them and they are absolutely vital to maintain our mental and physical well being. Since the body cannot manufacture minerals, they must come from our diet.
Life’s Abundance Minerals & Antioxidants drink mix is a delicious way to supplement your diet.
This unique mix is made with a variety of freshly harvested sea vegetables and contains approximately 74-plant based, naturally chelated, trace minerals. For an additional nutritional boost, it also contains antioxidants from 11 nutrient-rich super fruits like acai, cranberry, goji, maqui and pomegranate ... making this a high ORAC beverage blend. ORAC stands for oxygen radical absorbance capacity and it's a way of measuring the antioxidant level, which is important because antioxidants are essential to good health.
Unlike many liquid water enhancers made from chemicals, our formula is made with coconut water and aloe vera and it does not contain any added sugar, artificial flavors, colors or preservatives. The organic coconut water replaces electrolytes plus it is alkalizing, which helps to restore a natural pH balance in the body and counters the effects of an acidic diet.
Instead of giving you a sugar crash like most other “health” drinks, our Minerals & Antioxidants mix gives you sustained energy.
Give hydration a boost with Life’s Abundance Minerals & Antioxidants. In two delicious flavors, Cherry and Tropical Fruit, pour into a water bottle for a convenient, go-anywhere nutritious drink. Take it to the gym or give a bottle to the kids … it’s delicious, refreshing and nourishing!
