What are the pros and cons of buying organic foods?

[PlentyWell]

I recently interviewed Dr. Lisa R. Young, an internationally recognized nutritionist and portion control expert about her thoughts on the organic foods. http://www.plentywell.com/pros-cons-buy ... nic-foods/ She recommended eating organic foods in particular to the “dirty “dozen”—i.e., apples, lettuce. I have also started buying organic food such as organic apples, organic pomegranate, organic flour, organic tea and organic baby foods etc. However, this has slightly increased my grocery budget. But I am fine with it as it gives me satisfaction that I am feeding healthier and safer food to my family and kids. What are your thoughts on advantages and disadvantages of eating organic foods?

I must say that there are trully MORE PROS than cons about the organic foods...

First, no pesticides.
Second, much better taste and aroma.
Third, very little transportation (= less carbon dioxid emissions!),
...
...
and finnaly, buying from the nearest farm you not only support the local (organic) food production but also keep jobs etc.!

Awaring of the benefits the natural food has on our health...I try to eat that valuable foods every day.

Sheers!
