‘Organic’ has become a very popular word over the last several years, but what does it acually mean?

For thousands of years, organic agriculture was the only option available for food production.  With the technological advances brought about by the industrial revolution, farming methods were also industrialized in an effort to increase crop production and animal growth through the use of chemical or synthetic compounds.  Although technologies have had many benefits to our lives, we are now finding that these chemicals are having serious negative effects on both our environment and our health. 

Organic agriculture efforts are now seeking to find ways to find and use technological advancements that support sustainable, healthy farming methods while eliminating methods which have negative impacts on society and the environment. 

Research has found that plants grown organically have been found to contain greater amounts of bio-available vitamins, nutrients, and anti-oxidants.  When choosing natural makeup, finding and using products that use organic plant oils, extracts, and other plant-derived ingredients ensures that you will have the beneficial vitamins and minerals your body can actually use and benefit from.
