Scientists studying the diets of over 69000 French volunteers for an average of five years have claimed that people who eat Organic food are 25% less likely to get cancer.
It's a bold statement to be sure.
Chemicals and pesticides used on traditionally farmed fruits and vegetables may trigger the disease, meaning that eating a greener option could prevent it.
The study found the quarter who ate the most organic food were 25% less likely to develop cancer. Age, class, and existing health problems had no bearing on the results.
It concluded: "if the findings are confirmed, promoting organic food in the general population coujld be a promising preventive strategy against cancer."
It is definitely food for thought.
