TopicOrganic Food
ContentI believe that each citizen has the right to live a free and healthy life I believe that finding a way to make organic foods more affordable to citizens there could be a considerable amount of weight loss in the state of Oklahoma. In the past few years I have watched people that surround gain weight at a rapid rate. Society has created an idea that everything must come in a large quantity and at a fast pace. This idea has had a major impact on people around the world. Fast food chains have and are continuing to make millions off of feeding people an array of unhealthy food. I believe that by allowing citizens the opportunity to eat meals that consist of naturally grown products instead of pasteurized products would increase the amount of healthy citizens. Health related issues such as heart complications, high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, etc are some of the leading causes of death in our society. Most of these problems could be solved by citizens having healthy eating habits. The main reason people tend not to use organic products or foods is because they are high in price. Due to the fact that organic foods are grown without pesticides or other substances that can enhance the growing process, organic foods tend to be looked at as unaffordable. If farmers could find a way to grow large amounts of crops without pesticides and other growth products organic foods could have a major impact on the healthy eating habits. One can not assume that people will stop going to fast food restaurants to get a quick meal, instead we hope that by allowing for a healthier type of product people will consider the effects of healthy eating habits. Likewise one might say that by using organic products in fast food restaurants the overall costs of meals would increase. This may be true but I believe citizens would rather pay more for a meal they know is healthy than a meal they know is simply putting them at risks for later complications. By implementing restaurants and fast food chains to incorporate organic products in their ingredients this in return would help society become healthy which I believe is a goal that everyone would love to achieve.
