Is Organic Really Better? Healthy Food or Trendy Scam?



Organic food is a huge trend: it promises a healthier and better life. But can Organic food really live up to the expectations or is it just baloney?

  2. I'd honestly rather see land use and pesticide impact on the label than a big green leaf that just makes me feel better about paying extra. No clue how you'd make that readable in a grocery aisle though. Apparently buying an apple requires a dashboard now.

  3. LOWKEY organic stuff is kinda fake in my opinion, like whats wrong with GMO, its literally designed to be better and copper sulphate is poisonous pesticides, generally artifical stuff is not posionous AND I SEE ADS FOR ORGAINIC ROCK SALT which is physically impossible bc rocks arent organic

  4. I am not crazy!
    I know they raised those EMF levels!
    I knew it was 5G. Right after 4G. As if I could ever make such a mistake. Never. Never!
    I just – I just couldn’t prove it. They – they covered their tracks, they got that idiot at the health ministry to lie for them.
    You think this is something? You think this is bad? This? This electro-smog? He’s done worse.

  5. I looked at the different labels that exsist in my country, and picked one whos standards I agree with. And stick to that one wherever I can. For me most important is not just enviormental concerns, but also human labour ethics and animal welfare.

    So yea, I buy my potatos from local conventional farming. But the expensive bio label for my occatinal chocolate and meat. I dont buy bananas as they have to be braught in by plain. And if i get the choice, I try to go for glass, aluminium and paper rather then plastic.
    It just depends on the food type and whats really the least harmful overall.

  6. This video is missing important context: animal welfare and cancer risk for farmers and nearby communities using conventional pesticides.
    Organic farming prohibits factory farming practices, including permanent confinement, high stocking densities, and lack of outdoor access. Meanwhile, recent research, including a 2024 U.S. nationwide study in Frontiers in Cancer Control and Society and a 2026 study in Nature Health, has found significantly higher cancer prevalence among populations living near conventionally farmed, pesticide-sprayed fields, in some cases comparable to the risk associated with smoking.

  7. But organic fruits and vegetables have almost no systemic pesticides and chemicals, so peeling organic produce will achieve a very clean and pure fruit or vegetable

  8. I dont really care about organic, I care about my vegetables being ripe and have good taste. The problem is so much of these are gathered too early and they dont let them ripe properly because they need quantity.

  9. The only way I could do that was if you had to do a lot more work and then you would be done by then I could just go home to do the work I have a job and I have a lot more to get ready to go home to get my car so I’m just going home to get the car wash my truck to go get the kids then I’ll go get the truck to get them then I’ll be back to work I just don’t know what to say I just don’t want them anymore I just don’t know how I can get it to work and I’m not know what I have a job to get to work I have a lot to get it to get done I just want you to be home

  10. What my mom instilled into me: “eat a fruit or vegetable with your meal, doesn’t matter what, just eat a fruit or vegetable.”

    My take away from the video: have a balanced diet.
