Tune in to learn more about what it means for a food to be classified as organic, as well as when it’s most important to stick with organic (and when it’s okay to buy non-organic).

Memorable Moments:
“Organic farmers use only natural processes on their farms, so when we buy organic, we can be more confident that we are not eating Genetically modified ingredients or toxic chemicals.”
”GMO stands for genetically modified organisms. GMOs are living organisms whose genetic material has been artificially manipulated in a lab setting.”
”In 1994, the FDA approved the first GMO tomato.”
”Most GMOs fall into one of two categories: herbicide tolerant or pesticide producing.”
”We really don’t know how their consumption is going to affect our health long-term. We also don’t know how they will affect our planet or our animals. Remember, GMOs are, in essence, manufactured plants. They can’t be found in nature anywhere. They are created in labs and then pushed on consumers, many times without our knowledge.”
”In the United States, three federal agencies regulate the use of GMOs: the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). These agencies claim GMOs are safe for consumption...but are they really? These organizations are the same ones who refuse to ban ingredients that other countries have banned because of their significant health concerns.”
”A consumer should know what they are eating at all times. They shouldn’t have to guess or read between the lines. Labels should be clear one hundred percent of the time.”
”In the United States, the following crops are often genetically modified: corn, soybeans, cotton, sugarbeets, alfalfa, apples, canola, potatoes, eggplant, papaya, pineapple, salmon, squash.”
”Since the early 1990’s (when GMOs really hit the market), Americans have grown sicker and sicker.”
”When we consume GMOs, we are participating in the ONLY long-term safety trial EVER conducted in humans.”
”One of the best ways to avoid exposure to toxic pesticides is knowing which foods you need to buy organic.”
”If a food is on the Dirty Dozen List, you NEED to buy organic because these fruits and vegetables have shown to be the most contaminated with harmful pesticides. The foods on the Clean 15, though, don’t necessarily need to be organic.”
