Benefits of Organic Food
1) Nutrition
Some recent pulished studies in peer-reviewed journals indicated organic foods to have higher nutritional value. For example, researchers at the University of California, Davis, recently found that organic tomatoes had higher levels of phytochemicals and vitamin C than conventional tomatoes.
Organic foods have hgiher levels of many disease-fighting antioxidants and essential vitamins, including Vitamin C.
2) Quality
Organic food is grown with quality rather than quantity and appearance in mind. This can mean that organic produce does not look so uniformly perfeat as conventional produce but it certainly tastes better.
3) Reduction and Prevention of allergies and deseases
Industrial pesticides and fertilizers used in intensive farming contain synthetic, toxic chemicals, residues of which remain in the food they are involved in producing. Organic farming uses natural, synthetic chemical free methods that produce quality foods that are much safer for humans, as well as animals that consume them.

One of the major advantages of organic food is the fact that is not genetically modified due to the mehtods of organic farming.

Using organic baby food, free of chemicals and genertically modified ingredients, you are providing your baby with all the nutritional benefits available and non of the chemicals and pesticides tha tcome from non-organic foods. Healthy baby food will help your baby be healthier.
