Home > Organic > Why Choose Organic?
People choose Organic for many reasons. We believe an Organic lifestyle benefits the user, the environment, and ethically - it protects the welfare of animals and often it promotes the welfare of humans in the Third world through Fair Trade.
At Living Ethically, we believe Organic food and drink often tastes better, although this is a personal, subjective view. Similarly, we also believe the energy of food and drink is influenced according to how it is produced and that Organic methods foster a vitality that conventional food lacks, benefiting human health.
Scientific studies have shown there are some increased advantages of consuming organic over conventional foods, but often an Organic lifestyle rests simply on the belief it is healthier for you. At present, the Food Standards Agency has yet to conclude there is any difference between the two.
More compelling though is evidence that organic growing and production methods are better for the environment through:-
- Increasing soil fertility and yielding more efficiently.
- Encouraging the numbers of natural organisms that fight diseases.
- Allowing plants and animals to boost their natural resistances to disease, rather than relying on the protection of fungicides or antibiotics for instance.
In some third world counties the misappropriate use of chemicals in agriculture production has health implications for workers and their families.
Choosing an organic Lifestyle means you buy into a philosophy that is probably more beneficial for your health, is kinder to the environment, safeguards the welfare of animals and enhances the working conditions in agriculture.
