Basic First Aid

During the last decade there has been a change towards mechanization and homogenization of farming, which uses pesticides, additives, herbicides, synthetic fertilizers and mass-production techniques. All this is clearly affecting mankind’s health, and new diseases are spreading rapidly amongst humans and animals (bird’s flu being the most recent one).

Reports from the World Health Organization explain how using chemicals and other additives in our foods, along with the manufacturing we do to produce box foods are actually a big threat to our heath.

If you know how to grow potted plants or have room for a small garden it would be wise to grow your own organic produce. I am explaining seven great reasons for doing this here:

1. You will not find any additives in your organic vegetables. Through research by organic food associations we are shown how these things added to our foods can cause mi grains, heart diseases, osteoporosis, and hyperactivity.

2. You will not have to worry about synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. These chemicals are used to protect crops from insects and extreme temperatures but they do affect the quality of the produce.Pesticides are toxins to human as well.

3. Your vegetables will not be genetically modified (GM). Antibiotics, drugs and hormones are used on vegetables to grow more and larger ones. One of the consequences of this practice are vegetables which look all the same and are usually tasteless. In the end we end up consuming the hormones that have been used on the vegetables, with the potential risks for our health.

4. By eating organic vegetables you have grow yourself you will be sure they are healthy for you. You will not need to worry about the addatives named above, and they will be more natural than anythign you can get at the supermarket. Your health will not bein jeappardy and you will know that nothing has been added to your produce.

5. Growing your own organic vegetables will provide you with much more tasty vegetables. Using pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, hormones and antibiotics cause vegetables to grow in an unnatural way and hurt the taste as well. Organic vegetables will enhance your cooking as they tend to have much better flavor.

6. Organic farming is friendly to the environment. Because you won’t use pesticides or other equally harming products on your vegetables, you will not damage the soil or the air with the chemical components.

7. Another plus from growing your own organic vegetables is that you contribute to your own self-sustainability as well as that of the planet. Communities have been started where people can exchange produce that they have grown naturally. This creates a friendly enviornment which is beneficial to everyone.

In the end, eating organic products only means that we do not add anything else to them than they would naturally have. As you can guess, additives, fertilizers, pesticides or hormones are not components of naturally grown food. To better care for your health, grown your own organic vegetables -and a few pots is all you need.
