@nutritionsmadesimple: Myth-busting About Organic Food Healthier or Safer. I’m Dr. Michael Richman, a double board-certified cardiothoracic, surgeon. In today’s video, I’m breaking down why organic food is more about marketing than science. It isn’t healthier or any safer than conventional foods, but certainly costs a lot more Let’s look at the facts together! #health #Science #organic #pesticides #healthfacts 🌿 Medical innovation is transforming patient care through evidence-based medicine, clinical research, preventive care, diagnostics, telehealth, pharmacology, and advanced treatment options.

at this point. as long as they're eating veggies and fruits to feed their brains🤷♀️. I agree with this video. It checks with the scientific ethics class I took in college.

I think the point he is making is there are two ways this needs to be understood. Grow your own food- best. Not an option? Don’t be afraid to make fresh food choices within your budget because there’s propaganda mixed in with half truths when only one category of fresh grown foods is actually being tested. And undeniably lower income families could feel like something healthier for their family is “out of reach” when organic prices are so high. There is no squeaky clean option when it comes to mass produced produce, period. We are all just doing the best we can with the information (and budget) we are given.

Organic foods are grown without artificial preservatives, synthetic fertilizers, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Organic meat, dairy, and eggs come from animals raised without routine antibiotics or growth hormones, which helps prevent human antibiotic resistance.

As a farmer, thank you for speaking this truth! Prime example is baby spinach leaves. It’s all grown organic. Stores use “Dynamic Pricing” to daily adjust how much goes in the “Organic” labeled bag for 60% more $ and how much goes in the regular label bag. Also, organic produces lower yield per acre, so we have to plow up more of the world to grow the same amount of food, thus organic is worse for the environment! Again, thanks so much.

Nothing can be worse than Glyphosate! Dr, sorry but I don't believe you're right on this one.

I buy organic because it doesn’t have glyphosate. That’s it.

People always say this, but I can assure you that my organic fruit and vegetables rot very quickly and my non-organic sit for days if not weeks

The difference is the toxins can be washed off organic produce, but it can’t washed off conventional because it’s grown into it, not sprayed on top.

I have noticed that some organic food does taste remarkably better than the non-organic. That’s the reason that I would buy the organic as opposed to non-organic

I used to be an organic hater and mocker. Nearly all doctors recieve no training in nutrition, so I'm curious what your background is that you can say this with a straight face. Yeah, it costs more. So does everything of quality. I wasn't able to eat dairy for 24yrs without horrible head and stomach pain and bathroom-for-days. Over the last 6yrs I started to get more and more massive bloating and cramping from grains. Almost accidentally, 3yrs ago I discovered the solution to both: "just" eat organic. Yeah, my food bill doubled. But I went from a severely restricted diet, that was getting more restrictive every year, to being able to eat literally every single thing on the planet without any pain or discomfort. My wallet hurts but my body does not... and it's been one of the most exciting discoveries of my entire life. I can feel like a normal human again.

Our neighbors are organic farmers. Although it’s an organic spray per se, they spray ALL the time.
