PART B_2

In less than a century, the word “organic” became a symbol of quality and tradition. In recent years, many organic products have appeared in shopping areas and superstores, claiming they are “100% organic” and have “no artificial additives.” But do they truly help the environment? Are they better for your health? They may cost twice as much, but how can we check what you are getting and if they are worth the price?

The largest sector of organic products still belongs to food. Supporters claim they taste better and are better for people. Critics, on the other hand, say there is no nutritional difference. The public demand for such products has increased drastically due to fear of the possible health risks of chemical pesticides. Consumers believe that pesticides can cause cancer, especially in children. But scientists claim that the fear is exaggerated.

There is still reason to be cautious, despite denials by many scientists. A recent study showed that 203 out of 957 non-organic foods tested and still had some pesticides. This includes nearly all the bread tested. Still, other scientists claim that our understanding of pesticide effects on humans is very limited.
