Organic foods are produced without synthetic (man made) pesticides, herbicides and fertilisers. Non organics use synthetics to produce the final food product. A study conducted conducted by Spangler in 2012 revealed that the health benefits of organic foods are unclear. No significant differences were found between organic and non organic food.
There is not enough evidence to prove organic foods are more nutritious and it is also a personal preference if they taste better. For the extra price of organic foods, plus the amount of statistical differences showing they are too small and unlikely to be considered in regards to public health, it does not really matter which type you choose.
Tip: Whether you prefer organic or non organic foods, as long as you are consuming a balanced , nutritious diet (organic and/or non organic foods) you will be fine.
