And they’re also lower in pesticide residues. This series will share some of the science behind the nutritional benefits of organic foods. Did you know?

Mumbai: A study undertaken by environmental NGO Greenpeace over a year has allegedly found the presence of harmful pesticide residues including toxic dichlorodiphenyl trichloroethane (DDT) in tea sold by leading brands across India.
"We had carried out a study across many cities in India over the past one year to check the quality of tea leaves sold in cities. Our study has revealed the presence of residues of chemical pesticides in a majority of brands," Neha Sehgal, senior campaigner of Greenpeace told reporters here. She claimed that out of 49 samples tested by the non-profit organization, around 34 (94 per cent) contained residues of at least one pesticide and 29 (59 per cent) of the samples contained a cocktail of more than 10 different pesticides in them.

It's about time we had state foods we could really be proud of. That's why we've combed through lists of seasonal produce, official state vegetables and official state fruit to find an all-star piece of produce from each state. Behold, the 50 states of superfoods. Alabama Why we love blackberries: The official state fruit (different from raspberries and black raspberries, these have a white core) is a good source of potassium and vitamin E and a very good source of fiber, vitamins C and K and manganese. Alaska Why we love cauliflower: It may be white in color, but cauliflower, native to Alaska, shouldn't be cast aside -- it's a relative of famed nutritional rockstar broccoli, after all, offering anti-inflammatory powers that may help ward off cancer and stroke.
