What is the difference between eating organic food and natural food?

The majority of people think that these two kinds of foods are the same, but they are completely wrong. If you start doing research about organic and natural food, you find lots of explanations that might confuse you. Here are the essentials that you should know:

Basically, organic foods are farmed and produced without any chemical pesticides or fertilizers. In the case of meat we find that farmers don’t use antibiotics or growth hormones in order to increase the size of the animals.

On the other hand, we have natural food, which is essentially the opposite, where farmers just use the essentials.

A study conducted by Stanford University concluded that there is not a big nutritional difference between these two kinds of foods. However, the same study concluded that in organic food there is no presence of any chemicals, such as pesticides or fertilizers. In natural food, there is a small percentage of these chemicals. Perhaps this will make a difference when you go to the grocery to decide which product buy.

Did you know the differences between these two kinds of foods?

Based on what you just learned about the possibly lethal consequences of the foods we eat, or rather the chemicals absorbed into them, what should our society do? Should we require the government to label the different kinds of produce ‘organic’ or ‘natural’?
