It is with growing popularity that more and more organic produce is appearing on the shelves of supermarkets and health shops year on year. It is also pretty much accepted that the cost associated with buy organic produce like flax seed meal, is more expensive than its conventionally grown equivalent. So is organic produce healthier and/or safer?
Well unfortunately both sides of the argument throw out what they believe is sound scientific research and shout down the other side and it is true that everyone has an agenda; do you believe the research that was funded by a pro organic group or from the association that represents the average conventional farmer for example. The basic decision is that when you buy flax seed meal in its organic form you are in theory getting less manmade chemicals entering your body. Food agencies argue you are not getting a significant unsafe level but you need to decide if you are going to take in anymore than you absolutely have to in case it is making your body function at anything less than its best.
