The fear of foods

 by Won so-yeon
 
 Many people have grown very attentive to eat healthy foods because they are pursing well being. Mothers choose organic ingredients to feed especially their baby even though they have to pay more money for organic foods.
 
 Some studies claim that buying organic food for kids is a just waste of money. On the other hand, a science news refutes the opinion about weather eating natural food is not beneficial. According to the news article, the writer argues that result of the study can’t be accepted because there are not criteria about the amount of harmful pesticide that can influence human body. The people, who think there is no merit in eating organic food, tested on animals to know whether pesticides that stain on the food affect human’s body and brain. Therefore, we can’t know the influence on human and there are chances to do not detect the subtle effect of pesticide. Besides, small amount of chemicals may be not good for children. Based on a report ‘Environmental Health Perspectives’, the levels of several organophosphate pesticides in their kids’ bodies are reduced sharply when people change from conventionally grown foods to organic foods for five days in their kid’s diet. So the writer of news believes that feeding organic food can be lower their pesticide load.

 Really we can get the good effects if we spend more money to buy good food, namely organic food. So far, there is no correct answer about that and no standard what are the bad effects. But there are a lot of researches on bad effects of unhealthy foods. Therefore, people cannot but worry about harmful factors when they eat some foods and feed their children. Then, what is the fundamental solution? I think that it is also important to choose healthy foods but also we have to be more interested in growing healthy ingredients. In the past, fears about something to eat are minimal. The more technology advances, the various additives, pesticides and genetically modified food appear. Some of conscienceless manufacturer make foods, using many additives and low quality ingredients for their profits. To make healthy and credible foods, producer should act conscientiously with thought that I and my lovely family will eat the foods I make and grow.
