Organically grown products seem to have a lower risk of acquiring chronic illnesses and preserve an ideal state of health, in spite of the scarcity of available scientific data. This might be because, as compared to traditional agricultural products, organic foods derived from plants have a higher concentration of bioactive components and a lower concentration or no content of harmful elements like nitrate, heavy metals, synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. Therefore, in order to ascertain if consuming food cultivated organically is healthier than consuming food grown conventionally, extensive, long-term intervention studies are required. An update on the current understanding of the health effects of consuming an organic versus conventional food diet is given in this review. The justifications for adopting organic farming practices are to profit from the advantages of nutrition, steer clear of GMOs, have better and more organic flavour, receive direct assistance with farming, preserve agricultural diversity, and put an end to the usage of hormones and pesticides in plant products. The current review's objective is to assess the scientific data regarding the advantages of eating organic products over food that is produced conventionally and evaluate the nutrient value of organic and conventional fresh products.
