Organic vegetables are actually healthier than regular vegetables, Irish scientists at the Teagasc Nutrition Research Center say..

This is because foods grown without the use of toxic chemicals contain higher levels of flavonoids.. In addition, they contain 20% more antioxidants, which prevent damage to body cells..

It is worth noting that five years ago, an extensive analysis of over 200 studies found that organic foods offered no nutritional benefit.. However, new work refutes this assumption..

During the tests, experts assessed the levels of flavonoids and antioxidants in various varieties of onions.. In addition to high flavonoid content, antioxidant levels were found to be significantly higher in organic onion varieties grown without the use of chemical herbicides and pesticides..
