Organic Food for your Baby:

Organic food is the best you can give to your child, starting around the second half of its first year. This is the best choice you can make as a parent. The long-term results of your decision to introduce organic food in the eating habits of your family are extremely important for the health of your child, for your own health as well as for the environment.

What is organic food:
According to the definitions the organic products correspond to several standardized requirements, namely:

• They grow naturally, without use of pesticides, fertilizers and use of human or sewage wastes.
• They are processes without use of ionizing radiation and artificial food additives.
• Organic animal products are based on clean, naturally breed animals: no growth hormones and antibiotics are used.
• All genetically modified foods are excluded from the list of organic foods.

Organic Foods and Children:
The baby food industry is well regulated worldwide. The processed food you can find for babies up to 12 months are free of additives (like preservatives, colorants and flavorings) and are very balanced as it concerns salt and sugar. Ironically, as soon your baby becomes a toddler, he or she is already an ordinary subject of the food industry. No guidelines, no nutritional requirements, no legislation anymore. You are the only one, who is responsible for the food intake of your child and the building of good nutritional habits. The organic food market grows rapidly and the parents are the main responsible for this. You have just to join this group, as the organic food for children constitute 50% of the total amount of organic stuff sold worldwide.

Organic products as an investment in good health:
The best effect of the organic food on the health of your child is related with the lack of “chemical stress” for his body. Babies and children are very sensitive to the “solid” food as:

• Their taste receptors are 3 times more than the receptors in the mouth of an adult; therefore they taste the food stronger.
• Their body systems are under development and they can hardly manage to overcome the negatives of the “ordinary” food, which contain good amount of chemicals.

Several researches have found that the nutritional choices are a key-factor for development of children’s health related problems like allergies and asthma, obesity and diabetes. Organic products can help the prevention of serious chronic disease in the future like cardiovascular and coronary heart disease, osteoporosis and even cancer.
