Press Release Summary = A study conducted by American researchers has revealed,
organically grown food is better in terms of nutritional values offered.

Press Release Body = Organic food is highly nutritious and good in comparison to the
conventionally grown food, claims a recent study conducted in the US by American
researchers Dr Adel Kader and Dr Maria Amodio, from University of California Davies.

As a part of the study, test was conducted on kiwifruits that were grown under both
methods in the same farm, i.e. the two sets of crops were matured under similar
environmental conditions. The test found pretty high levels of polyphenols and
Vitamin C in organically grown kiwis in contrast to those grown by conventional
method. This statement was published by Chemical and Industry magazine on March 26,
2007.

\"All the main mineral constituents were more concentrated in the organic kiwi fruit,
which also had higher asorbic acid (vitamin C) and total polyphenol content,
resulting in higher antioxidant activity”, researchers Kader and Amodio wrote
in Science of Food & Agriculture’s journal.

The study concludes that the organic food offers value for money; one has to shell
out a few extra bugs to get wholesome food for a healthy life. Perhaps this is the
reason why more and more people today are turning towards organically grown foods.

As per the RNCOS report “World Organic Foods And Beverages Report
(2006)”, “Consumers began switching to organic foods over conventional
since they wanted to keep away from pesticides. As a result there has been constant
rise in the demand for organic products – both food and non-food for the past
few years. Growing at a CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of 13.8% for the period
between 2002 and 2006, organic food market generated revenue of US$ 36.7 Billion in
the year 2006.”
