<div style="text-align: justify;">Conventionally grown fresh
produce has less protein, calcium, vitamin C, iron and riboflavin than
produce grown 50 years ago. Is that 'apple a day' still as good as the
apple that our grandparents would have eaten? Do those glossy,
physically perfect tomatoes, strawberries and watermelons on display at
your supermarket still deliver a nutritional punch (even if the flavour
disappoints)? Unfortunately, the answer is no: evidence continues to
mount against modern farming methods which stand accused of altering
the nutrient-producing ability of fruit and vegetables for the worse.
Organically-grown fruit and vegetables, on the other hand, have more
cancer-fighting antioxidants than conventionally grown foods. <br></div><i>Fonte di informazione:</i> «The organic advantage», n. 59, 6 aprile
