The news is in: Organic milk really is better for you, containing “significantly higher beneficial fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins” than non-organic milk. Can’t afford organic? Well, researchers found that the less chemical fertilizers, insecticides, and herbicides were used in the production of conventional milk, the more nutritious it was. Now you just have to find a dairy that isn’t organic but still doesn’t use chemicals. Happy shopping!
