Antibiotics in Conventional vs. Organic Foods

Video Transcript

Antibiotics, antibiotics can be found in conventional foods but they are not found in organic foods. We all been sick on time or another and gone to the doctor and the doctor will sometimes prescribe an antibiotic if we have a bacteria infection that our body is trying to fight in order for us to get better well take that antibiotic to fight that bacteria. Many times as a prevention measure food distributors will go ahead and give their animals a antibiotic as a preventative measure to try and fight that bacteria before it occurs. Many critics are questioning these antibiotics in our food animals because they are worried that they pose a risk to human health. The reason why they think that it might pose a risk to human health is because humans can build up a resistance to antibiotics. So if we're receiving an antibiotic for some of the foods that we are eating then there could be that change that we're developing a resistance against them. So if that was something that you were not concerned about consuming conventional foods would be right for you. If it is something that you are concerned about then organic foods would be right for you. Right now a lot of researchers don't know about this and USDA and FDA have approved it of being safe so you decide what's best for you.
