Organic food 'better than ordinary produce' - 2007/10/29 15:30
This looks great! I wish the US government would fund a study like this. But of course they won't as long as the FDA and USDA are in the pockets of the food corporations.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Organic food is more nutritious than ordinary produce, and contains higher quantities of antioxidants which help ward off heart disease and cancer, according to an extensive four-year study.
Scientists who led the £12 million project - the biggest ever research programme into organic food - hope their evidence will help persuade the Government to recommend organic produce and stop advising that eating it is merely a "lifestyle choice".
