HEALTHY FOODS are ORGANIC FOODS Nowadays, people often eat foods from fast-food chains and rarely eat organic foods. One thing people don't realize is that food from these restaurants can be bad for a person's health especially when they eat too much of it. Organic foods are foods that do not contain dangerous pesticides. It is very nutritious and worth buying since it does not contain any preservatives unlike other foods sold in the market. People may think that as long as it's edible and delicious then it's also nutritious and won't affect the body. Think again! This type of thinking could ruin you. Though there isn't much evidence to show that organic foods contain any more nutrients than non-organic foods; however some organic produce contain more vitamin C and higher quality protein content... as indicated in the article. It may be more expensive for us in growing organic foods but it is still much better for us to know that what we are eating is not associated with different chemicals or preservatives. As I have said, people don't realize that food from these restaurants can be bad for a person's health especially when they eat too much of it. Because of this, people suffer from different diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, and even cancer. These are not the only diseases that a person could get from always eating non-organic foods. From time to time, new disease is discovered from these types of food and unconsciously, people's lives shortened. Let this be a lesson to us to become more aware of our health and let ourselves take good care of our body by inserting organic foods in our diet. Besides, who will take care of our body if we won't? I believe that eating organic foods is much better than to eat non-organic ones. Although I am the type of person who loves to eat but often forgets to eat, I think that we should always check our food diet and be more considerate to our body.

You need to stay away from processed foods. Eat plenty of fruits, veggies, whole grains and whole wheat this will help you to have a healthy life. Also stay away from red meats. Anything that is brought in the store in a box or can is usually all processed foods that are not good for you. You need to make foods with fresh products to get the healthy life you want for yourself. Good luck in accomplishing this for yourself.
