Problems in consuming processed food

           Be healthy, eat organic. Fine, but for most of the consumers the problem remains on the price. Why eating organic food should be expensive if farmers do not use any chemicals or pesticides? The price of organic food is generally fixed according to the production. If a conventional yield can produce the exact amount of products it should do, this is not how organic production works.  Submitted to the pest damages and birds, the production may be less that what was expected, and the price needs to balance the production loss.

            However, some food habits may keep the cost affordable as eating seasonal, local and fresh food. Unprocessed products or "whole food" are coming directly from the farm to your plate, without transformation or add of preservatives and salts. Keeping the purity of the fruits and vegetables can keep their vitamins alive with the full antioxidants properties. In result it increase the energy and ease the digestion.

             Processed food contains generally huge amount of sodium for conservation process and hydrogenated oils, while "Whole food" with preserved nutrients are keeping diseases away, and keep you healthy. Eating fresh fruits, or just lightly cooked vegetables maintain all health benefits, and large amount of fibers it can contain, stimulating weight loss.

Finally it is the full sustainable way to consume as organic farmers directly benefited from their production, and consumers eat what their bodies really need.
