Organic Sweets? :)

Do you always feel guilty after gorging yourself on sweets? Well feel guilty no more!
Here are five reasons why you should choose to eat organic sweets:
1. Nutrition - organic sweets offer a lot more nutritional value than non-organic sweets
2. Reduction and prevention of some allergies and diseases - eating food that is free of pesticides can prevent and reduce the harmful side effects that consuming foods with pesticides can result in
3. Free from genetic modification - very few studies have been conducted on the side effects of genetically modified foods - however you can put your mind at ease when you indulge with organic treats because they are not genetically modified
4. Promotes a healthier environment -consuming organic sweets has a lower impact on the environment than consuming non-organic sweets
5.  Saves wildlife - non-organic farming methods can be very harmful to wildlife - however you don't have to worry about disrupting the sacred balance of the ecosystem when you bite into a mouth watering organic sweet
