Eating Organic During Pregnancy

Milk
If you drink milk, opt for organic. Milk from organic, pasture-fed cows is produced without antibiotics, artificial hormones, or pesticides, and can also provide extra omega-3s and beta-carotene. I find that when women start making organic choices for themselves and for their families, they often intuitively start with organic milk. Recent USDA monitoring data found that 27 percent of conventional milk samples contained synthetic pyrethroid pesticides.
