Going green and living a more natural lifestyle is becoming much easier to do, thanks to the wide variety of organic products available – everything from what we eat to what we wear. Not only is an organic lifestyle better for the environment, but it’s also better for our health.

Organic produce: Consuming organic fruits and vegetables will help free your diet of pesticides that are found in non-organic produce sold in grocery stores. Organic produce is often richer in flavor and is better for your body, too.

Organic tea: Grown without the use of pesticides and artificial fertilizers, organic tea is known for its health benefits. It contains high levels of polyphenols, a natural type of plant antioxidant known for its ability to fight free radicals, which can speed aging and cancer. The powerful antioxidants can protect against infection, too.

Organic throat relief: For the first time, there is a new over-the-counter cough and sore throat drop that is Certified USDA Organic - Organix Cough and Sore Throat Drops from the makers of Cold-EEZE. The great-tasting, medicated drops contain natural menthol derived from organic peppermint oil combined with organic pectin to suppress coughs, cool nasal passages and soothe irritated sore throats. To top it off, Organix is available in unique Dark Chocolate Mint flavor, as well as Purely Peppermint, Orchard Cherry and Golden Honey Lemon. Even the twist wraps of the lozenges are made from fully compostable corn starch.

Buy a juicer: Homemade juice is a great way to make sure you're getting the recommended number of servings of organic fruits and vegetables. Juice from organic fruits and vegetables are the best juices for the body because they are made fresh, are not pasteurized, are not treated with preservatives and are free of pesticide residue, which helps them to retain their full nutritional value. Try a carrot, ginger, celery and apple juice, it's a quick way to rev up the immune system and increase energy.

Organic meat: Consuming meat that was raised organically, free range and grass-fed assures you that you're getting meat from an animal that was healthy throughout its life. Healthy animals are given the freedom of movement and raised without antibiotics, injected hormones and fed 100 percent certified organic feed.
