When Organic Isn't Really Organic.

“When organic isn’t really organic” is an article found on the Time website, in the Health section. It addresses issues that arise when organic food contains certain levels of genetically modified organisms without the farmers’ knowledge. Such genetically modified hormones and pesticides can spread through the air. A couple of “natural food produces” then declared that they will look for a new certification for their products, called “non-GMO verified”. Therefore, this new verification will give consumers a relief, knowing the products they are purchasing have no trace of genetically modified organisms.
