4 Organic Food Labels you should Know!


There are 4 organic food labels you should know when you buy 'organic'.

This the most important label you should see when you get organic foods.
The USDA Organic seal is your best assurance of organic quality, and it's the international gold standard for organic personal care. Where personal care products are concerned, if you don’t see the USDA Certified Organic seal, the word “organic” doesn’t mean a thing. It must specify USDA to be meaningful. The ingredients in USDA certified beauty products are certified organic for food, adhering to much stricter standards as they are intended specifically for human consumption.

Growers and manufacturers of organic products bearing the USDA seal have to meet the strictest standards of any of the currently available organic labels.

There are 3 other organic labels in which it shows the food is at least 95% pure. Be sure and take a look at them here... Organic Labels

So...next time you are at the store to buy Organic Foods, check the labels! Maybe now you know what they mean.
