Growing Organic
Growing organic and eating organic becomes more and more common as our consciousness
of harmful insecticides grows bigger. I guess that by now,
most of home vegetable gardeners try to grow organic, and it is pretty obvious why.
No one wants to eat toxic food.
Were you aware that the majority of the
farmers who provide us with the grain that makes our bread or the tomatoes that
we put on our salads won't eat the very food that they produce? They know
what's in there, why would they jeopardize their health?
Two of the most popular classes of insecticides used in the U.S. are
organophosphates and carbamates. They are designed as neurotoxins, poisoning the
nervous systems of unwanted insects. Most of us already figured that by accumulative
effect, these substances can harm human nervous systems as well. They are found
in lawn sprays, weed killer sprays, roach and ant sprays, etc.
So, knowing that, the most reasonable conclusion is to buy organic food, and if
you have the option, grow it by yourself.
