Most crops in Australia are grown with the aid of toxic synthetic chemicals including pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers, and fungicides. Toxic residues from these chemicals are found on conventionally grown fruit, herbs, plants and vegetables and even snacks, skin care products and clothing.
Most farm animals raised, are being injected with hormones, antibiotics and other chemicals to increase production and to treat animal deseases. These hormones (e.g growth hormones) will be found in conventionally meat produce, and research have shown to have harmful effects on human health.
