So why not eat healthy and live happy and long?
For years we have been eating toxic produce under the pretext of achieving higher
agricultural output. In reality, neither is a higher output achieved, nor a healthier
community built.
Organic farming on the other hand ensures a holistic system with
no pesticides and no chemicals used on the produce.
None of us can do everything, but all of us can do something – so take the first
step and do the needful- GO ORGANIC-EAT HEALTHLY!
We at O!Bhaji simplify the whole process and home deliver to
you fresh and 100% organic vegetables and grocery.
In 1976 Kasargod in Kerala was sprayed with Endosulfan (pesticide banned in the
world) to protect the cashew crop from pests. 15,000 acres was infused with the
pesticide. Even after 1000s of deaths and innumerable deformities, we as a country
have still not banned the pesticide!
Chemicals: Oxytocin hormone – Used to increase the
size and freshness of vegetables like bottle gourd
Causes: Abortions, still births and kidney damage
Chemicals- Copper sulphate – Used to artificially
color vegetables like ladies finger
Causes: Anaemia.
