[WEBINAR] Which Is Best? Organic or Conventional
In social media and popular culture, there is a big debate about which type of foods are better, organic or conventional. In this webinar, we discussed what they are, how these foods are grown, labeling, and which one is better for you. This was an informative webinar for knowing where your food comes from and what different food labels really mean.
Watch the webinar recording here!

The following is discussed in the webinar:
- Definitions of what organic and conventional foods are
- Organic food labels and what they mean
- Big factory farms vs. small local farms
- GMOs & “No-till” farming
- Common assumptions about organic and conventional farming
Feel free to contact Julie if you have questions or need nutrition advice or join her Q&A session on April 1st. (No… it’s not a joke)!
And of course, you can always find her latest nutrition tips and science-based recommendations on www.cancerdietitian.com.
