Organic foods are grown with minimal to no synthetic chemicals, pesticides, weedicides, etc, so the ingestion rate of harmful chemicals daily through none other than our food is rapidly minimized if not completely avoided. Environmental sustainability and safeguarding are other aspects where organic foods seem to be the better choice.

Organic food production processes not only save the farmland but also prevent water bodies from getting toxic from synthetic chemicals.
