Greetings Steemit Friends
There is a lot of talk these days about organic living and organic foods, but what is all this fuss actually about? What is organic food? and How does it affect me?
Organic foods are food items that are naturally created and not genetically modified. Organic foods are free of synthetic chemicals such as pesticides and chemical fertilizers, which are commonly used by many farmers these days to deter pests and aid with unnatural and rapid growth of food items.
So how does this affect you and why should you care about what is organic and what is not? Well for starters, the chemicals that are used during the growth of these food items are absorbed into the food itself. Food! that you and your family ultimately end up consuming which could result in severe illnesses and dreaded diseases as your body is unable to process these unnatural toxins.
So what can we do about this?.......
We can all play a vital role in changing the future of what we consume and the health of generations to come by home grown organic living. By growing your own fruit and vegetables in your backyard you are guaranteed produce that is free of unnatural chemicals.
I have included a few photos below showing you that this can be done by anyone....
These are some of the produce that I grew organically in my backyard through a method called "aquaponics".....but I guess this subject matter calls for a follow up article soon Steemit friends. 😎
To create awareness of this subject that I am so passionate about, please feel free to comment, upvote and resteem this article, many thanks my Steemit friends
