Are Products from Organic Farming Superior to Conventional Ones?

In the present times, manufacturers striving for high sales, offer us a wide selection of food products and simultaneously inundate us with advertisements from every direction. They are well aware that everyone is concerned about their health and chooses products that say bio, fit, organic. Unfortunately, products from organic farming are more expensive than conventional ones, and often the consumer is deceived. How can we consciously choose healthy products to avoid overpaying for products that are not truly organic?

Welche Bedeutung steckt hinter dem Begriff 'ökologische Lebensmittel'?

Nur solche Bio-Betriebe, die bestimmte Anforderungen erfüllen und entsprechende Zertifikate erhalten haben, dürfen Lebensmittel als Bio-Lebensmittel bezeichnen. Dazu gehören Verpflichtungen wie der Verzicht auf künstliche Düngemittel und Pflanzenschutzmittel, das Nichtproduzieren von genetisch veränderten Lebensmitteln, der Verzicht auf Spritzen und künstliche Dünger, die Haltung von Tieren im Freiland sowie ihre Ernährung mit Bio-Futtermitteln. Verarbeitern von Bio-Lebensmitteln ist es untersagt, Konservierungsstoffe, Farbstoffe, Aromen und Geschmacksverstärker zu verwenden. Das Zertifikat, das durch EU-Recht geregelt wird, soll den Verbrauchern versichern, dass sie für echte Bio-Produkte bezahlen. Leider bieten einige Hersteller ihre eigenen Zertifikate an, und es stellt sich heraus, dass ihre Lebensmittel, obwohl sie teurer sind, sich nicht von herkömmlichen Produkten unterscheiden.

Ist es wirklich Bio-Lebensmittel – oder zahlen wir für die Qualität?

Warum sind ökologische Lebensmittel teurer? Der Ertrag von ökologischen Pflanzen ist in der Regel aufgrund von Verlusten und unmittelbarem Wachstumsschutz durch Chemikalien niedriger. Bei der Tierzucht geht es um die Kosten für angemessene Bedingungen, teurer Futtermittel und selbst Zertifizierungen, obwohl die Landwirte EU-Zuschüsse erhalten. All dies soll eine bessere Qualität der Produkte gewährleisten. Ökologische Gemüse und Früchte haben normalerweise mehr Vitamine, Mineralstoffe und Antioxidantien als die in Supermärkten erhältlichen Lebensmittel. Dies gilt besonders für Vitamin C und Vitamine der B-Gruppe. Dies ist ihr entscheidender Vorteil – es lohnt sich jedoch zu überlegen, ob es nicht besser ist, zu einem niedrigeren Preis mehr Gemüse und Obst zu kaufen. Bei Fleisch ist es definitiv besser, das aus ökologischer Haltung zu wählen. Obwohl man Gemüse und Obst waschen und mehr essen kann, kann man den Gehalt an Fleisch nicht ändern. Massengezüchtetes Fleisch kann Antibiotika und Hormone enthalten, die den Tieren verabreicht werden, was zu einem ungünstigen Fettgehalt aufgrund der schlechten Qualität des den Tieren gefütterten Futters führen kann. Ein solches Fleisch kann einen höheren Cholesteringehalt aufweisen. Eine schlechte Futterqualität kann auch zu einem geringeren Gehalt an Vitaminen und Mineralstoffen in Fleisch führen.

Befürchtungen hinsichtlich Pestiziden in Nahrungsmitteln

Der Unterschied zwischen biologischen und konventionellen Lebensmitteln besteht im Verzicht auf den Einsatz chemischer Pflanzenschutzmittel während des Anbaus. Das Ziel dieser Mittel ist die Beseitigung von Unkraut, Pilzen und Schädlingen, die den Ertrag verringern können. Daher glaubt die Mehrheit der Menschen, dass konventionelle Lebensmittel weniger gesund sind und nur biologische Lebensmittel gesund sind. Dennoch ist es entscheidend zu wissen, dass jedes Nahrungsmittel vor der Zulassung auf den Markt Tests auf Pestizid- und Schadstoffgehalt durchläuft. In diesem Zusammenhang schneidet polnisches Essen sehr gut ab, da nur in 0,5 % der Proben Pestizidreste gefunden wurden, die die Normen überschritten.

Ist es wirklich eine Entscheidung, gesund zu sein?

Bezüglich Gemüse und Obst ist die Antwort schwierig, da die Wahrscheinlichkeit einer Kontamination von traditionellen Lebensmitteln mit Pestiziden gering ist. Wenn wir uns keine ökologische Nahrung leisten können, ist es immer noch besser für unsere Gesundheit, irgendwelche Gemüsesorten zu essen, als sie überhaupt nicht zu essen, aus Angst vor Chemikalien. Im Falle von Fleisch gewinnt hier ganz klar ökologische Nahrung. Nicht nur aus humanitären Gründen, da Tiere, die auf diese Weise gezüchtet werden, unter besseren Bedingungen leben und sich natürlich ernähren, sondern auch aufgrund der Vorteile für unsere Gesundheit. Es besteht keine Notwendigkeit, Antibiotika präventiv einzusetzen, da Tiere, die nicht in überfüllten Käfigen leben, nicht so häufig krank werden und nur die wichtigsten Impfungen ausreichen. Auf diese Weise erhalten wir Fleisch mit einem besseren Nährstoffgehalt ohne zusätzliche Substanzen. Wenn jeder ökologisches Fleisch und Eier wählen würde, wären ihre Preise mit denen von Massenfleisch vergleichbar.
