No evidence to show 'organic food has more nutritional content

A new research at the University of Copenhagen has shown that there is no evidence to support the view that organic food is better than food grown with the use of pesticides and chemicals.

Shoppers pay more than a third more for organic food in the belief that it has more nutritional content than food grown with pesticides and chemicals.

However, the new research by Dr Susanne Bugel and colleagues, from the Department of Human Nutrition, shows that there is no clear evidence to support this belief.

In the first study ever to examine the retention of minerals and trace elements, animals were fed a diet consisting of crops grown using three different cultivation methods in two seasons.
