It's True: Organic Food is More Nutritious PDF Print E-mail

Are organic foods really more nutritious than conventionally grown food?

The commonplace answer among skeptics has been "we don't know" or "there isn't enough scientific evidence." Even the National Organic Program declares that organic food is no more nutritious than its conventional counterpart.

But oodles of research on the subject does exist and a new report by scientists at The Organic Center summarizes this data for us. They examined nearly 100 studies to reach the conclusion that organic fruits and vegetables on average had higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants than their conventional counterparts.

This is the first in-depth review of scientific peer-reviewed literature on the nutritional benefits of organic food since 2003. (Forty new studies have been published since then.)

Lucky for us, The Organic Center is going to update these findings online as new studies that compare organic and conventional foods are published.

So, yes, organic foods are generally more nutritious than their conventional counterparts. And now there's science to back it up.
