Some people believe that organic farming produces healthier foods than its traditional counterpart. But research and experiments have not been able to find any evidence that organic foods are healthier in any way.

Studies have confirmed that differences in nutrient levels and pollutants between organic and non-organic foods are negligible, with the exception of phosphorus. In the United States, products labeled "organic" may not contain entirely natural ingredients as companies market them as "made in the U.S. organic" Stanford University researchers say spending more money to consume organic products is a ploy to waste money.
