The word “organic” seems to be the buzzword lately from clothing to food, but the truth of the matter is organic has always been the norm until the industrial revolution came into play then our way of life changed and not necessarily for the better.
We have been using artificial fertilizers for over 150 years now which damages and strips the soil of its vital minerals and micro organisms, Heavy duty pesticides specifically DDT were first introduced around 1943 during world war 11 and within 18 months these materials started showing up in our food supply such as meat, butter, milk, even human milk.
These toxic agrochemicals have found their way into our soil, and our water table. California for instance has such huge amounts of pesticides in their water and soil that an epidemic of primary liver cancer has hit children who play outdoors! If that’s not bad enough, meat may contain higher levels of pesticides than plant foods. Also our meat is full of growth hormones and antibiotics unless you purchase organic grass fed meat.
