I have read an article which stating health benefits of organic products. It will reduce public health risks to farm workers, their families, and consumers by minimizing their exposure to toxic and persistent chemicals on the farm and in food, the soil in which they work and play, the air they breathe, and the water they drink. Children are especially vulnerable to pesticides. Thus, offering organic food and fiber products into the marketplace gives parents the option of choosing products produced without the use of these toxins (https://www.ota.com/organic-101/health-benefits-organic). Actually, I am looking for organic stores Manila .I am interested to buy natural products that can be used at home. Thanks for this article at least I got new ideas about organic products.
