How To Be Green
The Ultimate Guide
to going organic by Melissa Daly
Go ahead an pack your fridge with Amy's
Kitchen yummy frozen dinners (www.amyskitchen.com) an bushels
of organic kale, but know this:
- "Organic" doesn't always equal "healthy". So if you're deciding
between a conventionally grown orange and an organic cupcake,
pick the orange - it's more nutritious.
- Not all Organic foods are fortified with extra vitamins
and minerals. Read labels an take a multivitamin to be sure
you're getting your daily requirements.
- Since harsh pesticides aren't used, your organic tomatoes
may look a little lumpy and spotted, and you may occasionally
find a bug or two. Just remember, its what's on the inside
that counts.
