Why Choose Organic?

Consuming pesticides, even in small amounts over time, can have harmful effects on the body.  By choosing organic coffee, you reduce your exposure to these harmful chemicals while supporting sustainable farming practices that are better for your health and the environment.

​

Studies have found that up to 40 different pesticides can be used on a single batch of conventionally grown coffee. Some of the most commonly detected include:

​

☠  Chlorpyrifos – Linked to neurological issues
☠  Diazinon – Affects the nervous system
☠  Glyphosate (Roundup) – Potential carcinogen
☠  Malathion – Disrupts hormones and brain function
☠  Endosulfan – Banned in many countries due to toxicity

​

Since coffee beans are one of the most chemically treated crops in the world, switching to organic coffee eliminates exposure to these harmful substances while supporting sustainable farming.

Short Term Effects

​

  • Digestive Issues – Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach cramps.

  • Neurological Symptoms – Dizziness, headaches, and brain fog.

  • Hormonal Disruption – Some pesticides mimic or interfere with hormones, potentially causing imbalances.

Long Term Effects

​

  • Increased Cancer Risk – Exposure to certain pesticides has been linked to cancers such as lymphoma, leukemia, and breast cancer.

  • Endocrine Disruption – Pesticides can interfere with hormones, impacting metabolism, reproductive health, and thyroid function.

  • Neurological Disorders – Long-term pesticide exposure has been associated with conditions like Parkinson’s disease and cognitive decline.

  • Liver and Kidney Damage – These organs work to filter toxins, and prolonged exposure can lead to toxicity and disease.
