瘦肉精， 包括猪，牛， 火鸡。 似乎鸡肉，水产品除外。

the concept of 瘦肉精 is different between China and Canada
in China, 通常所说的“瘦肉精”则是指克伦特罗
in Canada,“瘦肉精”允许使用 莱克多巴胺/又译雷托巴胺（Ractopamine）
莱克多巴胺 is 毒性小、代谢快 than 克伦特罗

这些长期食用没问题吗？对孕妇和儿童也没有影响吗？

还是买organic的安全些吧。前两天在炸药店买的ABF的五花肉，还是挺肥的，比一般的肥。估计没有瘦肉精。

 

[sunny_cctv]

是啊,肉蛋类还是买有机的给孩子吃比较好吧,蔬菜类如果害怕转基因,也只好买有机的了,都没见哪有不转基因的玉米卖?

是吗？听说加拿大所有的猪都是来自于那3，4家.........而且说媒体都不敢报道他们。

唉～～原来这里也不那么安全。以后还是自己种菜，自己养猪养牛吧～～

Main difference between orgnaic vs non-organic: $$$

Is Organic Better?
By Jackie Fraser

Jackie Fraser is the executive director of AGCare (Agricultural Groups Concerned About Resources and the Environment)

Organic food generally costs more. That might be worth it, if organic food was healthier or more environmentally friendly. However, it’s not. It’s more expensive, and it’s no better for you than regular food….which, besides being reasonably priced, is more nourishing than ever. We are living longer and healthier lives, thanks to modern medicine and modern food production.

Organic food is not healthier

Natural toxins and bacteria are the biggest threats to food safety 1. For example, recent food scares, such as botulism in organic carrot juice and spinach contaminated with E.coli 0157:H7, could happen to either organic or non-organic food 1. If anything, organic food tends to be more susceptible to higher rates of pest damage 2. Pests open doors and create pathways for toxin-causing fungi, such as aflatoxins. These toxins are natural, but they can be deadly.

In Canada, all foods, organic and non-organic, must meet the same inspection and food safety standards, such as pesticide residue limits 1. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency is responsible for monitoring pesticide residues on the Canadian food supply. Over the past several years, it’s consistently shown that more than 99 per cent of the food produced in Canada falls within its standards 3. It’s worth noting most non-organic foods (about 80 per cent) have no residues whatsoever. Farmers are trained to use pesticides responsibly to ensure that residues do not pose a health risk to consumers 4.

Studies on nutritional content have been inconclusive. Nutritional content is more dependent on other factors, such as freshness, livestock breed, diet and age, plant variety, and soil nutrients, than whether or not the farmer used pesticides.

Organic food is not better for the environment

All farmers must treat the environment with respect, if they are to be successful in the long term. Their families live, work, and play on their farms. Their livelihoods depend on the wise and responsible management of resources, such as soil, water, air, and biodiversity. However, only 1.5 per cent of Canadians farmers grow organic food 5.

In fact, virtually all farmers employ the same environmentally responsible techniques as organic farmers; they simply have a wider range of options to manage pests and disease. For example, farmers have long switched crops from field to field, called “crop rotation,” to reduce pest pressures and enhance soil health. That way, they can use less pesticides and fertilizer. In fact, Ontario’s farmers have reduced their use of pesticides by 52% in the past twenty years as a result of better technologies and education 6.

Using the full range of options to increase crop yields, including pesticides and commercial fertilizers, is better for the environment because less land is required to grow food for a growing population. This leaves more land for wildlife habitat and natural areas.

Buy local

To be truly environmentally and health conscious, consumers should pay close attention to where their food comes from. Buying local means reducing the amount of fossil fuel used to transport food. Local food is fresher, which means it probably tastes better and is more nutritious. The vast majority of organic food is imported. Is it better for the environment to have a truckload of organic food shipped all the way from California or overseas? Isn’t it better buying it fresh and local, whether it is organic or non-organic?

Decide for yourself

The best way to decide if organic food or regular food is better is to do some research, try both, and judge for yourself. If it is locally grown or raised, you can be very confident that it is safe and produced in an environmentally responsible manner, whether it’s organic or regular.

的确,虽然一直买有机的食品,但是一直就对有机的蔬果的新鲜度心有芥蒂,即使不是因为进口的因素,有机的购买者比较少,所以不时都会看到放久了不新鲜的情况.其实要不是对转基因的安全性心有疑惑的话,对于蔬果是否有机我是不在乎的,不知道是否可以从标签上判断是否转基因呢,有文章说4开头的都是转基因的,也有说8开头的才是(比如costco的大部分),而4开头则是传统作物.所以在无法判断的情况下,只好买有机的了.但肉蛋类,关乎激素啊,抗生素啊,似乎有机的对孩子会好一些,你看那些有机的鸡蛋,就是国内买的土鸡蛋的感觉.
