Also, if organic food is the answer. But you have to watch out. Some try to pass their crops off as organic to get the better price. Plus the big Argo corps. have been lobbying congress to lower the standard of what can be called "Organic". So they can label their shit food organic and make more money.
Out of all the technology made for growing crops for the people, have ALL been to the benefit of the business side. Despite all the poisons and toxins big Argo uses , in matter of fact, Congress have gave them their blessing to put that crap in our food. God forbid if corporations dont make maximum profits off the sheeple. Almost none , or very little technology has been made to grow better & more healthy crops & veggie's and make them more nutritious ! That is the state of the USA food business
I don't think organic farmers don't use ANY pesticides or fertilizers, they use organic types in place of of synthetic or toxic materials. I use organic fertilizer in my vegetable garden.
The USDA doesn't mention the word "genetic" or "GMO" in their 1990 Organic Foods Act. So technically, a product could be GMO and organic , though in most cases it is not.
Also, the MORE organic food we buy, the cheaper it will get in the long run as the phenomenon will spread and increased competition will eventually make everything more affordable. Besides, with good food you'll have great health, lots of energy and a well-working brain, so you'll be able to afford a few extra bucks on awesome nutrition!

2) Girls are reaching puberty faster because they are fatter these days. When a girl's body fat reaches a certain level, she goes through puberty. This is why olympic gymnasts start puberty later; they're drinking the same milk as everbody else.

@demoskunk Just because people lived a shorter life a century ago doesn't prove that organic foods is not beneficial, nor does it mean that fertilizers aren't harmful. I can show plenty of people who smoke and look fine.
However, we know that it causes cancer. Things are cumulative. As for the past, there are many other variable to consider with respect to life expectancy. But it's not worth my time explaining because you don't care to seek knowledge, you just care about spouting off...

Lower mortality in organically fed rabbits. 2nd and 3rd generation rabbits from organically fed parents had higher birth rates and more viable embryos. Infectious illnesses less frequent in 2nd generation organically fed animals.
I love organic foods and support them 100%. I try and eat as much organic products as possible, but it's very expensive when you add it all up! And also every now and then I will eat out at a fast food place which kinda defeats the purpose of eating organic?
@andresblazeit420 Real? I grow my own food cause it's cheaper and I come from a family who has farmed forever dude. I'm no yuppie. You buy your food off a shelf, you ever killed your own meat? I have and that is real.
@andresblazeit420 USDA website"on average organic foods contain slightly higher levels of trace minerals,vitamin c and antioxidant phytonutrients than conventionally grown crops." "Organic meat products have been shown to reduce risk for potential prion-related diseases including mad cow disease and to arsenic residues in chicken meat, and organic livestock practices do not contribute to the growing phenomenon of drug resistant pathogens." nal.usda.gov/afsic/pubs/faq/BuyOrganicFoodsB.shtml
Here's how you can tell if your store is actually carrying organic food: Go look at the cuts of meat and organic produce; then compare it to the non-organic food. The organic food will look, feel, smell, and taste better.
But I just prefer the cheap crap from the can. It's yummy, tangy, salty, GMO-fortified goodness--and for half the price. YAY!
organic produce reflects the real cost of food. the GMO industry is highly subsidized, which in turn helps fund the chemical companies to produce herbicides and pesticides , because farmers need them when they grow GMO food. GMO foods have been found to be inferior in nutrient content, cause massive allergic reactions, and have virtually wiped out small family farmers from growing their own seed, due to Monsanto's greed for control of the food industry.
@ASAFYY No....I believe it has to do with prioritizing...I do just fine shopping at Whole Foods and I'm a college student working 40 hours a week. I find it funny how people cry about it being too expensive, but they drive Lexus's, have 20 inch rims, a closet FULL of shoes from Foot Locker, brand new clothes from the mall, and go out and spend 50 dollar + every weekend....
@timmyxdl - Not only is Whole Foods expensive, but you are buying the same food as you could buy at any grocery store. The only difference is the pictures on the wall of barnyards and farmers in coveralls. Do you really think that cucumber arrived at the store in the back of an old pickup?
@CouldNotCareLes That's why I never buy anything FROZEN. However, the fresh produce is completely different. Yeah you could buy it at the other grocery stores, but those are commercial produce. They are filled with synthetic pesticides and all sorts of wacked out stuff. I shop at both grocery stores, but I only get commercial produce if it's not on the dirty dozen list...Not to mention that the nutrient value of an organic produce is far superior to a commercial produce.
@CouldNotCareLes I do agree that organic chips, organic sugar, organic cookies, organic cereal, organic spagetti sauce is pointless. But getting fresh organic meat and organic produce is completely different...Especially the meat...
I didn't know that bit of info about the Government doesn't subsidize organic farms, that makes alot of sense now and explains why it costs more than conventional foods! I guess it goes to show that the Government has never cared about it's people and only about making money! That's why people are so unhealthy and always getting sick and the Government's making money in the long run from health care. I read a book called, "Beginners Guide to Natural Living", explains how it's all connected!
Customized vitamins are slowly gathering attention. Vitamins should not be bought at stores for various reasons. You can get them from me, but if not, at least do your research.
How about calling 'organic' farming or products... 'traditional' farming and 'traditional' products (it IS traditional... since the beginning of time!).
'Traditional' might sound less hippie or left-wing and then have a wider acceptance with the general populace.
I really liked the way you made the point that maybe there's a reason(!) that Europe has made restrictions on GMOs.
Natalie GMO is not natural, agriculture is not natural, the cropse that we use in agriculture are not natural. saying that something is natural or not dosent mean anything.
Since organic farms dont use for exampe pesticides they are LESS productive then conventional farms.
People are taller now then they were 100years ago since we live healthier lifes and have better medication.
@007bcom no its not because of growth hormones. i have heard it several times that its because we live healthier lifes. for example last week i hard a report on the news that north koreans that moved to south korea were much shorter then south korean due to malnutrition.
we clearly live healthier lifes then 100years ago. most people back then didnt reach the age were most people get cancer today, they didn have as good medicine,malnutrition was a problem and they worn out theire bodys.
@007bcom were did i say that i dont eat organic food or think its bad?
i just pointed out she was wrong on several points. but as the brainwashed idiot u r u think everyone who correct someone that only talks about the posetive sides of organic food is "anti organic".
@CollegeLoheart@CollegeLoheart i dun know, if you know what all the ingridents are then perhapse. if you buy organic food because pesticides may perhapse be bad for you or for other good reasons its understandable. but dont buy into the chemicals are bad, natural stuff is always good for you, laboratories are spooky arguments or overal claims made by for example this women who dose not fully understand what she is talking about.
So if I were to eat only organic, and natrual foods while reading the ingridents to stay away from such as MSG, HFCS, Gluten, etc I will be fine ? I'm doing more resreach on offical sites.
@CollegeLoheart well organic dosent nececary need to be better the non organic. the pesticides they use (in your country) seems to be worse since its comes from nature and its really not man made aswell as in theory the plants produce more of its own poisons organic crooping.
@CollegeLoheart theres really no such thing as natural food that comes from agriculture, nothing in agriculture is really natural, not even the plants. agriculture is highly man-manipulated. and if it was,hell theres more stuff in nature that will kill you than man will ever make.
@CollegeLoheart The thing about todays food is that there are so many diffrent substanses in it which make it really hard for scientists to reachers how they effect one and other. beyond common sence whats healthy it can be a bit tricky..
@CollegeLoheart i eat regular food, sometimes organic but mostly non organic. try to vary my diet so i dont to much of the same, but its something i cant say for sure that its better for you.
if you organic farming is the best well buy organic food. i belive much more in integrated pest management.
If you want to spend nine bucks on a pure organic loaf of bread, be my guest. Fact of the matter is to be labelled as organic it only has to have 51% organic. I guess the solution to the problem would be to legislate organic farming, let Walmart takeover, turn the soil into parking lots and import everything..'cause that is what will happen. 100 years ago, everything was organic, life expectancy, 45. Today nothing is organic and we are livin to 85Hope you starve to death waiting for organic food
look up the video "Norman Borlaug on Penn and Teller" to hear why GE crops are a GOOD thing. Norman Borlaug is an amazing person trying to solve world starvation problems using GE crops.
The whole reason those non-organic farming methods were developed was because they DO make the yeilds greater and the process cheaper. Thus how could organic method not be more expensive.
support your group's points of view, but what you said didn't make sense. "organic farms produce more per acre, it's only more expensive because non-organic farms are subsidized". If organic farming produced higher yields and not more expensive as you say, then all farmers would use those methods for their crops.
WOnderful wonderful videos! I am a huge advocate of organic food and only eat organic. I can't tell you how much better I feel. I have sent your video to all those that have been teasing me about my choice to switch. Let them eat sludgy veggies and motified food. Not this girl! :0)
Where did you get your info? GM corn was genetically modified so it could withstand the herbacide "roundup". This was done by Monsanto, the company that owns roundup. They could give a fuck about making vegetables more nutritious.
I encourage everyone to start growing a plant or two of their own food. Compost the soil with your vegetable scraps by tilling them into the soil for a month or so before you grow a plant and you will have beautiful, healthy, delicious produce!
My theory is pay a little more for food that you know whats in it..OR pay a Doctor a whole lot more later in life who will only put a bandaid on the problem,because there will be NO cure as long as big pharmacy is around paying useless government PIGS to not fund research for cure's.And DO NOT be misled by the word natural>Sodium Cyanide is natural.READ labels.If you cannot read or say the ingredients..DO NOT buy it.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You are very bias. Your goel here as i can see in the description is distinguish the difference between organic food and conventional food? But all you do is advertise in a bias way for the organic food industrie.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Organic food is only real when you grow it yourself! i can't understand why people trust the goverment to care about them wanting organic food, have you seen the list of chemicals that they say are ok to use on organic food...the FDA is a joke, fruit and veg now might use around 79 chemicals, while organic they can only use 19 chemicals! how is that organic??
I know when you buy meat from the local butcher a red dye is applied so organic or not its got shit on it because before anything is reached to the customer it pases through many hands.just google any of this bit of info. its Bloody Disgusting
so what ever the fda is saying to approve shit in our food people
I'm not done looking at most of your videos, but if you haven't done so could you talk more indepth about the living conditions of animals for organic meat and other animal food products versus conventional? It's really appalling what is considered "grade A" meat, let alone anything lower! I'm turning into a vegan because I hate these practices (all meat and eggs are out of the diet, just need to work on the dairy) and they can feel the pain of being killed. Mmmm... dead animal carcass!
I went to this restaurant called "Ted Montanas grill". It served Bison meat and home grown foods. I could tell the difference and asked them about it. They get their meat from a special farm. (Harris farms? I think). They feed the animal pure food and kill it on the spot and ship it immediatly.
Thanks Natalie! I didn't realize that the USDA didn't subsidize organic foods. Thats huge! I've been buying organic for 2-3 years as much within my budget but of course staples (milk, eggs, grain, no peel fruit, no peal veggies etc). Meat is ridiculus where I live though. I hope meat stabilizes a bit so we can but that too! Thanks for the info!
I buy all organic food now. I don't mind paying more money because I know the food is healthy. It took me many years to get over the price issue but it is an investment. My health is so much better because my body is getting the nutrients it needs. The price I pay for organic foods pays big dividends for me and the companies and farms that provide the food can stay in business and grow.
Just bought a Great pocket book called "Dont throw it ,grow it!" . Shows after buying and eating plants ,how to grow them indoors and outdoors. Buy one garlic bulb and grow 10. same with organic potatoes and so many other things we think we must 'BUY' to live. PioneerLiving's channel has some great posts on the subject of not buying
GMO's are not necessarily bad. It is a case to case thing, but most are actually not bad for ur health. On the other hand, most GMO corn has been made to yield seed that can not be planted for the next years harvest, this way farmers must buy seeds from the company every year, kind of copyright on plants. GMO's typically offer a higher yield per acre tho.
How to I know that the food at the store is really organic? Just because the label says "organic", How will the consumer ever really know if that product is organic? The FDA is some of the shittiest mother fuckers in the world!!!!!!!
many people dont buy organic food, are because they are not able to afford it, even though they want to have organic food. what can you do about that, nothing! ask those people to work harder? make more money ?
If you can't afford organic food, eating conventionally grown whole foods is 1000 times better than the typical American diet and far cheaper than buying pre-prepared foods and eating out.
Or you could eat organic foods and just buy and eat less food. Concentrate on efficiency of consumption and usage. You get more nutritional value from these foods anyway so your body does not require as much food as most people are used to consuming. Also wash your veggies and fruits with a water and vinegar solution or alternatively water and bentonite clay. That will extend the shelf life of dramatically and result in less waste.
Or you could just whine and cry about it and go on as usual.
Government doesn't subsidize organic farming. But they sure as heck have no problem subsidizing corn farmers. From whence comes high fructose corn syrup. Where do most of these farmers reside? IOWA. Where is the 1st Presidential contest held? IOWA. So what are the chances of electing someone who doesn't cowtow to that special interest? Well, like him or not John McCain didn't do it in Iowa and he came in 4th there. Don't agree with him on everything, but guess who I'm voting for in Nov?
non organic foods and such disgust me 100,000x more then 2girl1cup and the government is just a F-ing corporate bitch when it comes to regulations. they don't serve the people they serve their corporate economy.
Good video its very important information. An important person of note that led to the labeling of "GM" food in Europe is a man named Arpad Pusztai. His story is an important one for everyone to know. We need more heros like Pusztai in the US to ensure our food is safe to eat.
In order for food to have word organic on the label, it has to meet the USDA specifications for organic food. That is what this video goes over, what the USDA specifications are. It would be illegal for a company to put the word organic on a food label unless it met this standard. By the way, "all natural" means nothing and the term isn't regulated. Only food labeled as organic is actually organic.
Great video! A couple things that you could have touched on were trans fat(hydronated oils). These foods were modified to have a similar molecular structure to saturated fat to give them a more solid texture. There are studies showing that they increase your bad cholesterol and decrease your good cholesterol.
Cows were being feed the brain and spinal tissue of other cows causing the spread of Brain Destroying Prions. Prions are rare proteins that are created from the act of cannibalism.
thats sooo gay ..........why think of wat can kill u in 20 years when theres so much that can kill u today .......organic /greassy cheese burgers/co2 emitions ......these things are well talked about but wont make a big differnce for a couple of years .....which is more than enough time for u to get into a fatal crash, get hooked on drugs, wife or husband to leave u , get pregnant or what ever the case may be ......
I like you and your video Natalie. I just wish Organic food wasn't so damn expensive. I shop at Wild Oats, but If I were to shop at the supermakret, I could probably purchase twice as much food...such is life?
I have friends who insist on consuming only organic produce, and they have developed some delusional, paranoid, and schizotypal thoughts about not only their food, but also the world as well.
wheres the labour going to come from to plant alternating rows of crops, england moans enough about foreingers coming here as it is. And the unemployed of england and i suspect america are not willing to do it.
npk adds nutrients to the land. Nitrate however may take the minerals but i havent heard of that being used for years.
Thank you for this educational video. I heard recently that a person that is a Vegan and drives a Hummer has less of a harmful footprint on our planet than a meateater that drives a Prius. I eat 90% certified organic, including a little meat. It makes me feel good to know I am not only helping preserve and enhance my own health and my family's but also contribute to the health of our planet. I also plan to one day soon be off fossil fuel.
Eating organic produce may make you feel good, as driving an SUV may make the drivers feel more esteemed, but it doesn't mean it's the right thing to do.
Dont get me wrong i would love to not have to handle pestacides because i do all of my own spraying. I would also like not having to spend mony on them , but most years I can hardly make enough money to put food on my own table. If i went organic my family would starve to death.
yes, most defiantly, the less spraying needed the better, i seem to spend most of my time at the moment up and down potato rows trying to keep on top of the blight.
Where did you come up with your delusoinal conclusion that a organic farm can produce more per acre than a conventional farm. Also when you go to the Farm Service Agency to sign up for your crop or livestock subsidies they do not care if you are organic or not,so organic farms are subsidised the same as non organic.
no veg farms are subsidised in england. pyschetruth, you have been grosley misinformed that organic farming is more productive. you can read as much as you want from the internet, but why would a conventional farm exist if organic is getting more yield. i dont spend thousands of pounds on chemicals just to give me something to do!
It's not the method of producing food that's affecting your health, but it's the eating habits and lifestyles that are doing the job. What would you prefer? Organic french fries or genetically modified spinach salads?
No thanks, I have friends who are obsessed about organic food, and believe me, they are not the healthiest individuals. I agree, organic food is better, but I'm not obsessed about it. Certainly, if there are organic food available, I'll try to get it. But you can't get organic avocado anywhere from where I live.
I just had organic avocado on my burger last night. Well, it's made a huge difference to my health - things I never would have guessed were linked to my food. Good luck on the avocados!
Yea but she is talking about both plants and live stock. Organic standards apply to meat as well. You can buy organic meat and eggs as well fruits, vegetables, breads, etc.
Also, if organic food is the answer. But you have to watch out. Some try to pass their crops off as organic to get the better price. Plus the big Argo corps. have been lobbying congress to lower the standard of what can be called "Organic". So they can label their shit food organic and make more money.

organic produce reflects the real cost of food. the GMO industry is highly subsidized, which in turn helps fund the chemical companies to produce herbicides and pesticides , because farmers need them when they grow GMO food. GMO foods have been found to be inferior in nutrient content, cause massive allergic reactions, and have virtually wiped out small family farmers from growing their own seed, due to Monsanto's greed for control of the food industry.

@ASAFYY No....I believe it has to do with prioritizing...I do just fine shopping at Whole Foods and I'm a college student working 40 hours a week. I find it funny how people cry about it being too expensive, but they drive Lexus's, have 20 inch rims, a closet FULL of shoes from Foot Locker, brand new clothes from the mall, and go out and spend 50 dollar + every weekend....
timmyxdl 1 year ago
@timmyxdl - Not only is Whole Foods expensive, but you are buying the same food as you could buy at any grocery store. The only difference is the pictures on the wall of barnyards and farmers in coveralls. Do you really think that cucumber arrived at the store in the back of an old pickup?
here's an enlighting vid about 'organic' food.

@CouldNotCareLes That's why I never buy anything FROZEN. However, the fresh produce is completely different. Yeah you could buy it at the other grocery stores, but those are commercial produce. They are filled with synthetic pesticides and all sorts of wacked out stuff. I shop at both grocery stores, but I only get commercial produce if it's not on the dirty dozen list...Not to mention that the nutrient value of an organic produce is far superior to a commercial produce.
timmyxdl 1 year ago
@CouldNotCareLes I do agree that organic chips, organic sugar, organic cookies, organic cereal, organic spagetti sauce is pointless. But getting fresh organic meat and organic produce is completely different...Especially the meat...

I didn't know that bit of info about the Government doesn't subsidize organic farms, that makes alot of sense now and explains why it costs more than conventional foods! I guess it goes to show that the Government has never cared about it's people and only about making money! That's why people are so unhealthy and always getting sick and the Government's making money in the long run from health care. I read a book called, "Beginners Guide to Natural Living", explains how it's all connected!

How about calling 'organic' farming or products... 'traditional' farming and 'traditional' products (it IS traditional... since the beginning of time!).
'Traditional' might sound less hippie or left-wing and then have a wider acceptance with the general populace.
I really liked the way you made the point that maybe there's a reason(!) that Europe has made restrictions on GMOs.

Natalie GMO is not natural, agriculture is not natural, the cropse that we use in agriculture are not natural. saying that something is natural or not dosent mean anything.
Since organic farms dont use for exampe pesticides they are LESS productive then conventional farms.
People are taller now then they were 100years ago since we live healthier lifes and have better medication.

The whole reason those non-organic farming methods were developed was because they DO make the yeilds greater and the process cheaper. Thus how could organic method not be more expensive.

support your group's points of view, but what you said didn't make sense. "organic farms produce more per acre, it's only more expensive because non-organic farms are subsidized". If organic farming produced higher yields and not more expensive as you say, then all farmers would use those methods for their crops.

I buy all organic food now. I don't mind paying more money because I know the food is healthy. It took me many years to get over the price issue but it is an investment. My health is so much better because my body is getting the nutrients it needs. The price I pay for organic foods pays big dividends for me and the companies and farms that provide the food can stay in business and grow.

GMO's are not necessarily bad. It is a case to case thing, but most are actually not bad for ur health. On the other hand, most GMO corn has been made to yield seed that can not be planted for the next years harvest, this way farmers must buy seeds from the company every year, kind of copyright on plants. GMO's typically offer a higher yield per acre tho.

If you can't afford organic food, eating conventionally grown whole foods is 1000 times better than the typical American diet and far cheaper than buying pre-prepared foods and eating out.

Or you could eat organic foods and just buy and eat less food. Concentrate on efficiency of consumption and usage. You get more nutritional value from these foods anyway so your body does not require as much food as most people are used to consuming. Also wash your veggies and fruits with a water and vinegar solution or alternatively water and bentonite clay. That will extend the shelf life of dramatically and result in less waste.
Or you could just whine and cry about it and go on as usual.

photo2010 4 years ago
In order for food to have word organic on the label, it has to meet the USDA specifications for organic food. That is what this video goes over, what the USDA specifications are. It would be illegal for a company to put the word organic on a food label unless it met this standard. By the way, "all natural" means nothing and the term isn't regulated. Only food labeled as organic is actually organic.

productivity of organic is not an issue.
#1-In India they grow multiple crops with alternating rows. They lose 10% or less to insect pests without pestcides. their pop is increasing
#2 In China they use human waste as fertilizer and use ducks/geese as insect pesticide. their pop. is increasing
#3 - After WW2 the US govt mandated use of NPK fertilizer which strips the soil of essential minerals. we have infertility problems.

Where did you come up with your delusoinal conclusion that a organic farm can produce more per acre than a conventional farm. Also when you go to the Farm Service Agency to sign up for your crop or livestock subsidies they do not care if you are organic or not,so organic farms are subsidised the same as non organic.
