The Dirt on Organics: Essential Answer - January/February 2013 By Anna Hallingstad, Lindley Mease, Priya Fielding-Singh, Chad La Tourette and Isabella Akker I've heard news reports about a Stanford School of Medicine study that found organic foood isn't any healthier than conventionally grown food. If that's the case, is it worth paying the premium price? — Anonymous Grocery stores these days offer us a lot of choice.

Continually stumped by her patients’ questions about the benefits of organic food, Dr. Dena Bravata of Stanford Medical School grew curious herself. So she and a team of researchers set out to investigate the health and safety differences between organic and conventional fruits, vegetables, eggs, grains, dairy and meat. Using meta-analysis, Bravata’s team pooled together 237 peer-reviewed studies addressing the nutritional benefits of organic and conventionally grown foods. The researchers found few differences in the nutritional content of organic and conventional foods. That said, the verdict is not final on the nutritional differences between organic and conventional foods. Why did the Stanford study inspire such controversy after other studies received little attention?
