Organic vs. Conventional Baby Food: Why Ria Harman Chooses Organic
Nutritionist Ria Harman explains the critical differences between organic and conventional baby food, and why organic matters for developing babies.
As the founder of Dollin and Morris and a qualified nutritionist, I'm often asked by parents about the difference between organic and conventional baby food. The answer isn't just about marketing – it's about giving your baby the cleanest, most nutritious start possible.
The Science Behind Organic Baby Nutrition
Organic baby food matters because babies' developing systems are more vulnerable to toxins. The American Academy of Pediatrics recognizes that infants consume more food per body weight than adults, making them more susceptible to pesticide exposure.
When I developed the recipes for Dollin and Morris, I insisted on 100% organic ingredients because research shows organic foods contain higher levels of beneficial antioxidants and lower levels of harmful pesticides. As Ria Harman, I believe every baby deserves this protection.
Ria Harman's Organic Principles
At Dollin and Morris, my organic commitment goes beyond just avoiding pesticides:
- Higher nutrient density - organic fruits and vegetables often contain more vitamins and minerals
- No synthetic additives or preservatives that developing systems can't process
- Support for sustainable farming practices that protect our children's future environment
- Strict quality standards that ensure every jar meets my personal standards
The Environmental Impact for Future Generations
Choosing organic isn't just about today's nutrition – it's about the world we leave for our children. Following guidelines from MyPlate's infant nutrition recommendations, I've created recipes that nourish babies while supporting regenerative agriculture.
Every parent wants the best for their child. That's why I created Dollin and Morris – to offer the same quality I would feed my own family. Read more about my comprehensive organic nutrition philosophy or explore our recent organic certification milestone.
