Why Detox?
Your body can accumulate toxins for many years without complaining, but
eventually when your organs and vital systems can no (1) l.................... cope, the body

There are so many ways our bodies can become overloaded; toxins can accumulate
through what we eat and drink, the air we breathe, what we put on our skin; and even

Decide if the statements are true (T) or false (F).

1. You can save money by buying organic food in the supermarkets.

..................

2. Non-organic products are, in fact, always more expensive than
organic equivalents.

..................

3. You need to prioritize your purchases when you don’t have a lot of
money.

..................

4. Organic food consumers can often get special discounts.
5. People who like organic food may care about environment protection. ..................

Buying organic produce
Organic food is the cheapest when bought directly from a farmer or producer, either
via a box scheme, farmers market or farm shop. Buying local, organic food will often
cost less than the non-organic equivalent. Unfortunately, most of us cannot access
organic food directly from the producer, and therefore it tends to be more expensive
than the basic non-organic equivalent in the supermarkets. It does pay to shops around.
Some organic products cost less than premium non-organic products. You might be
pleasantly surprised.
If you are on a tight budget, but would like to buy more organic food, then you
could try prioritising your purchases. Items such as organic flour, milk, bread and butter
can be cheaper. If you compare prices, you may actually find that many organic brands
are cheaper than their conventional equivalents and are often on special offer.
There are other reasons, besides nutrition, that people choose organic food - such
as taste, to avoid pesticides and a concern for the environment. The organic movement
does promote better soil and it stands to reason that in the long run, organic farming is
better for overall soil quality. Let’s not forget the most important factor in your diet, as
far as fruit and vegetables are concerned, is to eat as much and as wide variety as
possible.
