Why should I have organic ?

Organic food apart from being more healthy also taste better than conventional food. Also some studies have found them to be nutritionally superior to conventional varieties.
Also from the social angle, farmers get a better value for their hard work and hence uplifts most from a debt ridden cycle of conventional farming.
Animals Also gain from organic farming as they give the all important ” dung” for creating compost for improving soil fertility. Finally the overall soil structure, composition and fertility is always better than conventional farming as they are void from any harmful chemicals / pesticides that only cause a strain to farm Eco-system.

How Fertilizers Affect our Health

Fertilizers are a mixture of toxic chemicals which are absorbed into the plants, leading toxins to enter the food chain via vegetables and cereals and water creating health effects that increase and spread rapidly.

Contaminated water may contain high levels of nitrates and nitrites, causing hemoglobin disorders.

Heavy metals such as Mercury, Lead, Cadmium, and Uranium have been found in fertilizers, which can cause disturbances in the kidneys, lungs, and liver and cause cancer. Over 29 popular fertilizers tested positive for 22 toxic heavy metals, including Silver, Nickel, Selenium, Thallium, and Vanadium, all directly linked to human health hazards.

Ammonium Nitrate exposure causes other health problems such as eye and skin irritation, producing a burning sensation. Inhalation exposure can result in irritation of the nose, throat, and lungs. One can also experience nausea, vomiting, flushing of the face and neck, headache, nervousness, uncontrolled muscle movements, faintness, and collapse.

Potassium Chloride interferes with nerve impulses, interrupts with virtually all bodily functions, and mainly affects heart functioning. It can cause all kinds of gastric and stomach pains, dizziness, bloody diarrhea, convulsions, headaches, mental impairments, and redness, or itching of the skin or eyes.

Cadmium: Ultimately enters the human tissues resulting in diseases such as tracheo-bronchitis, pneumonitis, pulmonary edema, renal failure, osteoporosis, and many others. Lettuce (Latuca sativa L.), found in great quantities in countries like Brazil and others in South America, uptake Cd very easily, with an average amount of 870mg Cd/Kg. Yet, human beings, via the gastrointestinal system, only uptake about 5% of the Cd through food. However, those lacking iron can uptake up to 6% more. Hence, this can be harmful to them because Cadmium poisoning, which comes from its excessive intake, can lead to kidney, bone, and pulmonary damage.

Major Health Risks

Cancer Synthetic fertilizers increase six times the risk of dying of cancer types including brain cancer, lymphoma (non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, NHL), prostate cancer, leukemia, and large intestine cancer

Methemoglobinemia is a blood disorder in which an abnormal amount of methemoglobin, a form of hemoglobin, is produced. Methemoglobin is produced instead of the essential hemoglobin, responsible for delivering Oxygen to the red blood cells. This causes difficulty in delivering sufficient Oxygen to all body tissues, and is linked to birth and development disorders, such as the "Blue Baby Syndrome".

Depending on the amount of fertilizer consumed, it may cause disturbances in the kidneys, lungs, and liver and even cause cancer. This is due to the toxic metals that fertilizers have. Fertilizers remove the nutrients from the soil, damaging the soil and the local environment. Fertilizers, after being mixed with the soil, gradually reduce the fertility of the soil.
