Grow your own food

Since the dawn of farming, humans have been growing and consuming vegetables. After the age of industrialisation, farming became an industry and the use of pesticides, enhancement hormones and fertilisers became common practice. In the present age, we consume vegetables grown in such conditions. It seems entirely harmless and natural to consume these vegetables. That is until you realise what these chemicals do to our bodies. 

According to WHO, pesticides and fertilisers are known to have carcinogenic (can cause cancer), neurotoxic (can cause damage to the brain) and teratogenic (can cause damage to the foetus) substances. Continuous consumption of such chemicals are known to cause chronic diseases of the digestive, nervous and reproductive system. It is also known to affect the physical and mental health of unborn children. 

What can we do to overcome this problem?

The answer is, GROW YOUR OWN FOOD..!

Growing your own food has many advantages. The farming process is completely in your control and so you ensure no harmful chemicals are used. What’s more, it is cheap and doesn’t cost as much as vegetable grown in farms. This is for the simple reason that you save on transportation, logistic, storage and handling costs. Eliminating these factors also reduces food miles, the distance food has to travel in order to reach you. That means saving energy which in turn means, a healthier planet.
