Organic Snacks Aren't Healthier Than Junk Food

Organic Snacks Aren't Healthier Than Junk Food As our society becomes more health-conscious, more consumers are opting for organic foods. This includes organic versions of popular junk foods. But are the organic versions of junk foods really better
for you? Science says no. Although organic junk foods won't contain unnatural colorings, flavoring or genetically modified ingredients they are identical, nutrition-wise, to their conventional counterparts. They may also contain refined sugar and starches. Processed organic snacks are still processed, after all. Frank Hu, Professor of nutrition and epidemiology, Harvard University
