How to make your life more organic

The argument for a more organic life is compelling, yet bears repeating for those yet to make the leap. Research reveals that the majority of people who buy organic produce do so because of health concerns.

Up to 80 per cent of food is sprayed with herbicides and pesticides, and contains hormones and antibiotics. “The World Health Organisation is telling us these chemicals live in our body,” says Dr John Tickell, who studies health and longevity around the world, and is a Saba Organics ambassador. “They don’t just leave after 30 minutes. They build up and get stored in our fatty tissue – a process called bioaccumulation.”

The only way we can know what is in our food, he says, is to buy certified organic produce – which in turn also helps the planet by reducing pollution and soil erosion, conserving water and creating more biodiversity.
