September is officially Organic Month! The ‘Organic September’ campaign is to educate people about the benefits of buying organic, whether that be food, beauty, health or textiles!
So what ARE the benefits of using Organic?
You’re working with nature – not against it! When you buy something organic, you’re helping the environment, you’re supporting animal welfare, you’re working with environmentally sustainable sources, and you’re choosing products that are pure – no extra fillers or nasties that could potentially harm your skin! Organic farming also reduces greenhouse gases and protects natural resources, such as clean water and healthy soil.
Organic farming is shown by the British Journal of Nutrition to be significantly different to non-organic farming. Organic farms tend to be havens for wildlife, with up to 50% more of it found there! And organic farm animals are free range, with no routine use of drugs such as anti-biotics and wormers. You’re helping bees, butterflies, and birds, as well as a host of other insects and animals.
You’ll be using beauty products that are pure, clean, and efficient – the skin is the largest organ of the body, and we absorb things we put onto our skin into the bloodstream, so the cleaner a product, the better! Skin issues are also the most common reason to visit a doctor, so it’s important to look after it and use products that won’t potentially cause further harm or cause other issues down the road.
You’re using products that haven’t been doused in potentially harmful pesticides, herbicides or artificial fertilisers.
Put simply, when you buy organic you’re helping promote a better world – as well as a Naturally Better You!
And it’s easier than you’d think! Simply use the ‘organic’ category to find Naturally Better You’s organic approved products, and be safe in the knowledge you’re buying a product that is held to the highest standards of environmental and animal welfare.
