Organic Foods are healthier than conventional foods for your body
Peo
ple wonder what makes organic foods so healthy. Organic foods make a huge impact on the human body. With organic foods, they don't have any pesticides, the farmers give organic feed to animals outside, have more nutrients, and grow at a normal pace. In conventional foods however, they have spray pesticides, give the animals antibiotics, and the foods grow rapidly with less nutrients. With people over the years just now figuring out the negatives to conventional foods, supermarkets are opening up health markets in stores, and making tons of food with organic qualities. organic foods >> the $$ for them
There are many reasons to why organic foods are so expensive. Usually in the world today, the healthier or less fattening a food can be, can get pretty pricy. The top 5 reasons why organic foods are so expensive is because...
1. No chemicals = No labor
2. Higher cost of fertilizer for organic crops
3. Crop rotation
4. Post-harvest handling cost
5. Better living conditions for livestock (outside living)
Even though some people prefer regular foods, most people find it easier to stay healthy in the long run. In edition, farmers have a much easier job to not put chemicals on the plants and let the animals roam freely instead of spending money on machines to take care of everything.

Impacts of Healthy food!!
Scientists have agreed there are plenty of way to why organic foods are good for your health. Organic foods are spreading scarcely around the world. Organic foods dont cause diseases, are less fattening to the human body, and in organic foods the biochemical level (in your body), breaks down amino acids easier than regular foods. With all the chemicals in conventional foods, human bodies have a very hard time breaking down chemicals. Your body Is screaming at you; "NO CHEMICALS."
Ap human geography*******
This topic of organic foods relates to human geography in the most important chapter in the book. Most of organic foods come from chapter 10; Agriculture. This talks about the negative and positive effects of organic foods. Especially with crop rotation being a huge part in why organic foods are expensive, but is very important to agriculture farming. The reason why I chose this topic is because it interests me to tell people how great organic foods actually are for your body. I really hope in the future all foods possible to be organic, become organic. it will reduce a lot of peoples weight, and will allow people of all ages to have more nutrition. It prevents less diseases and allows you to live longer.
