At this time the organic food has a basic role in everyday’s nutrition health or health nutrition. By this reason, we should know some more fact about organic food stores… 
If we are to consider the evolution of food production over the years, organic food stores are a novelty. At the beginning of the 20th century the higher need for food led to the creation of artificial means of making the land more fertile and crops more profitable, which opened the door for pesticides, fertilizers and the rest of the chemicals. Hunger could have been eliminated for good in the new context of agricultural production. Well, in almost a century, farming has reached such a level that chicken, pigs and cattle are raised in farms, fed on the dead remains of their kin and kept captive in a two fit box for their entire short life.

Fruits and vegetables look great, chicken breast is large, but there is little flavor in this over-grown food. Was this the dream of fertility that the pioneers of modern farming aimed to fulfill? Or was it just a pursuit of wealth? No matter the situation, there is a growing trend of returning to traditional farming, and the products of small family businesses that  start to grow locally, are sold and promoted in organic food stores all over the world. Organic food is making waves worldwide in dire contrast with the chemical-saturated items from non-organic crops.

Organic food stores are far from dominating the market. Organic food comes for a higher price, it is harder to get and little is known about it. However, the collective mentality begins to change if we judge by the increasing diversity of organic food stores and the higher number of clients. It may happen that in ten years from now the standards of producing organic food may get lower because of this higher market demand. A decline would be normal and easy to imagine given the extent to which mankind has developed demographically.

What would happen if half the globe’s population suddenly started to buy food from organic food stores alone? There would be a food crisis because of the discrepancy between the capacity to produce food and the massive demands. Therefore, non-organic food remains a necessity that is not likely to vanish overnight. There is a wide range of consumers that would simultaneously shop from hypermarkets and organic food stores combining their food according to a semi-healthy pattern. And a just conclusion here is that a pretty healthy mentality is to limit the intake of very unbalanced products that rely on food additives, colorants, sugar and saturated fats, and focus on fresh food instead.
