Organic versus Inorganic Food Products

I was thinking about the issues on organic versus inorganic foods and how they have an impact on the people's health. Organic foods tend to be more expensive on the market therefore leaving some people no choice but to buy inorganic foods.
Advantages of organic food:
They are healthier-richer in vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty acids.
They aren't grown in nitrogen fertilizers and have not been doused with pesticides.
They have a more natural taste to them and are delicious.
People don't have a guilty conscious of feeding their families and their bodies with unhealthy mysteries of processed foods.
People can feel as though they are helping the environment, and feeding their family pure food to a lasting long surely life.
Disadvantages would the greater amount that you have to spend to obtain these great foods. The expenses are not cheap.
Another would be that the yield that they are grown by farmers tend be a bit slower than inorganic foods are grown.
Also that they are irradiated, this is why they do not last as long as inorganic foods. Irradiated meaning that they use radio active substances, others high energy electrons or X-rays.


Inorganic foods...advantages but they are all not nutritional values:
They are grown faster in yield so that we can feed most of our population.
If inorganic food did not exist then the nation would go hungry. People have relied on others to farm and cultivate food that is now being sold in the supermarkets today but how could we save ourselves if we all dont try to help one another?
They have a long duration of shelf life. thus the disadvantage would be that they have added chemicals that are injected or sprayed onto them that our bodies have to digest. Our bodies have to has to process the added chemicals.
Inorganic food is cheaper.
