Why go ORGANIC ?

Many food products we consume on a daily basis contain synthetic/artificial colours and flavours which have adverse health effects - organic products do not use any chemicals.
Antibiotics in milk - Cows as a result of their digestive process pass all the antibiotics they are injected with into their milk. People who consume this milk, develop resistance to antibiotics. Thousands of people die every year as a result of antibiotic resistance. Organic milk has no antibiotics.
Hormones in milk - Cows in traditional dairy farms are regularly injected with hormones to give extra milk output. Similar to antibiotics, these hormones are then passed into the cow’s milk. Such hormones severely effect young girls and boys leading to the onset of early puberty. Organic milk has no hormones.
Pesticides - As a reader, we are sure you are already aware of the danger of pesticides in food. Organic food has no pesticides.
Presence of heavy metals in milk - Heavy metal contaminants like mercury, lead, chromium, etc. pose multiple health risks. Organic milk has no heavy metal presence.
All the unwanted adulterants/contaminants a cow ingests, gets stored mostly in fat. Maximum contamination is usually found in toned milk or any milk product which has more than 1% fat. Organic milk is free of all chemicals and adulterants.
Ice cream, since it contains a higher percentage of fat, is the most affected dairy product as it has 4 time more fat content than toned milk. Organic ice cream is hence much safer than regular ice cream as its fat has no chemicals.
