The Increasing Popularity of the Organic Lifestyle in Singapore

SINGAPORE - Aug. 23, 2021 - PRLog -- The organic industry is experiencing an all-time high, not just in Singapore but also in the global market. Based on the Global Organic Food & Beverage Outlook 2026, the industry has grown into a multi-billion-dollar market. It is expected to increase in the years to come.

The increased demand for organic food worldwide can be attributed to the changing attitude towards health and the environment's well-being.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, people have recognised the importance of shifting to healthier, more sustainable alternatives. Moreover, they understand that by going organic, they reap long-term benefits.

One of the advantages of switching to organic products is the positive impact on one's health and the environment. "Organic products are harvested using organic agricultural methods and environmentally-ethical practices that reduce pollution, as well as promote water and soil conservation," stated Mr Zhangshou, Marketing Manager at Nature's Glory.

He continued, saying that "As part of their practices, local and international organic farmers avoid using chemicals such as pesticides and artificial fertilisers to grow their crops. Instead, they use compost and other natural fertilisers to enhance soil fertility and lessen the risk of pest infestation. By removing the traces of pesticide in their crops, they offer healthier products to the market."

According to Mr Zhangshou, "Besides having little to no pesticide residue, several studies have shown that organic counterparts of produce also contain significantly larger amounts of antioxidants and nutrients like iron, magnesium, vitamin C, and phosphorus. So, when families decide to replace their conventional store-bought fruits and vegetables with their organic counterparts, they can get more nutrients in their body to strengthen their immune system."

Lastly, organic food gives off a better, fresher taste and superior quality. "Soil care practices performed by organic farmers provide strong nourishment to the plant, therefore increasing the nutritional content of the food. Due to high levels of antioxidants found in organically-grown produce, the aroma, mouthfeel, and overall flavour are enhanced, thereby giving it superior quality and better taste," explained Mr Zhangshou.

For these reasons, more and more Singaporeans are leaning toward living a more organic lifestyle. As a result, they have become more health-conscious and have adopted a more sustainable approach by opting for organic food Singapore wide. What's more is that they see this movement as more than just a fleeting trend, but rather a long-lasting way of life.
