This document compares organic and conventional food. Organic food is grown without chemicals, hormones, pesticides, or radiation. It follows standards for soil health, humane animal treatment, and prohibiting synthetic inputs, GMOs, irradiation and sewage sludge. Studies show organic fruits and vegetables contain more antioxidants. While organic food is more expensive and may not last as long, its advantages include protecting the environment, supporting local farmers, conservation practices, and being free of chemicals and pesticides.

This document provides an overview of organic food, including its definition, production standards, chemical composition compared to conventional food, and impact on health. Key points include:
- Organic food is grown without synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, GMOs, and must meet certification standards.
- Studies have found some nutritional differences between organic and conventional food, like higher antioxidant levels in organic crops, but no significant differences in essential nutrients.
- Pesticide residues are more common in conventional food, but health effects of low-level exposures are still debated.
- While some studies suggest potential health benefits, there is no conclusive evidence that organic food is safer or more nutritious than conventional food.Organic food ppt

The document discusses organic versus conventional food production. It covers the USDA organic standards, levels of pesticides, nitrates, and E. coli in organic and conventional foods, with varying and sometimes conflicting results. Antibiotic use in livestock is also examined. In the end, the document concludes there is no scientific evidence that organic foods are more nutritious or safer than conventional foods. Both organic and conventional foods can be part of a healthy diet.Organic foods powerpoint

Organic foods are produced, processed, and packaged without using chemicals and synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides. While there is no evidence that organic foods are more nutritious, organic farming is better for the environment as it reduces pollution and uses less energy and water. Organic standards also aim to maintain natural animal behavior and health while limiting antibiotic use, which has been linked to antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Organic food tends to cost more than conventional food due to the higher costs associated with organic production methods.Organic food

The document summarizes the history and key concepts of organic farming. It began in 1939 with the term being coined by Lord Northbourne to describe an ecologically balanced approach to farming without chemicals. Organic farming uses few artificial methods and genetically modified ingredients. It is less damaging to the environment by not using synthetic pesticides and sustaining diverse ecosystems. While organic farms on average yield 20% less than conventional farms, they are more energy efficient and produce foods with higher nutritional levels and lower chemical residues. Organic products typically cost 10-40% more than conventional products. The organic market has been growing 20% annually since the 1990s.Organic food presentation

This document discusses whether eating organic food is necessary for public health. It examines the regulations and certification processes for organic foods. While organic foods may have higher nutritional values due to lower pesticide residues, the document notes there is variability between studies. Organic farming eliminates the use of chemical pesticides and fertilizers. The future of organic food may include more community gardens and vertical farming in urban areas.

Organic food is produced without the use of chemical pesticides, fertilizers, or genetically modified organisms. It is produced using methods that preserve biodiversity and avoid pollution of water sources. Some benefits of organic food include the absence of harmful chemical residues, enhanced antioxidant properties, and support of animal welfare and soil health. While organic food has been produced for centuries, modern certification standards help consumers identify fully organic products in the marketplace.Food additives

Food additives are substances added to foods during processing, storage, or packaging that are not normally consumed as foods themselves. They serve several purposes like restoring color lost during processing, providing sweetness, and preventing deterioration during storage. There are over 2500 additives used today classified into categories like preservatives, nutritional additives, flavoring agents, coloring agents, texturing agents, and miscellaneous additives. Common examples include sweeteners like aspartame and saccharine, preservatives like sorbic acid and benzoates, and antioxidants like BHA, BHT, and propyl gallate.

Toxins can be small molecules, peptides, or proteins that interact with biological molecules and cause disease. The document categorizes several types of intrinsic toxins found in plants, such as goitrogens, tannins, phytoestrogens, and phytates. It also discusses several heavy metals and chemicals that are extrinsic toxins, examining their sources and health effects.

Genetically modified foods have been developed since 1983 when the first genetically engineered plant was created. GM foods are produced by inserting genes from other organisms into crops to give them new traits like pest or disease resistance. While GM foods could increase yields and nutrition, there are also health and environmental concerns. In the Philippines, Bt corn was first introduced commercially in 2002 but the Catholic Church and some groups oppose GM foods due to safety issues. The regulatory system for GM foods in the Philippines is also limited.food coloring agents

The USDA organic label certifies that products have been grown or processed according to strict standards without synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, hormones, antibiotics or GMOs. To qualify for the label, products must be 95% organic or higher.

Organic food contains more antioxidants and lower levels of toxins than conventional food. The benefits of organic food include reduced pesticide exposure, support of environmentally friendly practices, and higher nutrient levels while being GMO-free.

Organic meat production has unique standards to ensure the health and sustainable treatment of animals. While organic regulations require access to pastures and organic feed, the label alone does not guarantee high animal welfare. Some organic farms have been found to keep animals in poor health conditions due to exposure to elements or lack of medical care. Overall, organic standards are intended to improve environmental and health outcomes, but do not necessarily provide consistently high animal welfare compared to all conventional operations. The higher costs of organic meat may not guarantee better living conditions for animals in all cases.Organic vs. Conventional - what's the difference anyway?

Genetically modified foods are created by altering the DNA of food crops. The top three reasons for genetic modification are to make crops resistant to herbicides, improve nutritional content, and increase crop yields. Potential benefits include lower costs for farmers and more durable, nutritious foods. However, critics argue that GM foods could lead to antibiotic resistance, new diseases, and harm the environment through gene transfer to weeds and loss of biodiversity. There is ongoing debate around labeling and regulation of genetically modified organisms in food.Gmf

Food biotechnology employs modern genetic techniques to enhance beneficial traits in plants, animals, and microorganisms for food production. It allows adding or extracting select genes to achieve desired traits like increased yields, nutrition, and resistance to pests and disease. Studies show that properly regulated food biotechnology is safe and can help address issues like global hunger by producing more food on less land. However, some argue unintended effects need further review and consumers support labeling of biotech ingredients. Overall, experts agree food biotechnology has potential benefits but continuous research and oversight is important.Nutritional Importance of Orgarnic and Nonorganic Foods
