BATTING FOR SUSTAINABL­E FARMING PRACTICES

-

Healthy Options, the leading all-natural products retailer in the Philippine­s, recently stepped up its thrust of supporting sustainabl­e farming and clean eating, reminding consumers that “our choices define our future.”

The one-stop retail chain encourages people to know the facts about organic so they can make the smartest choices for themselves and their families. At the same time, they also help uphold animal welfare, and lend support to farmers producing food not tainted with synthetic chemicals, but using sustainabl­e practices that support the future of the planet.

Healthy Options offers a wide array of quality products made of simple, clean ingredient­s. It also carries organic produce sourced from organic, biodynamic farmers who grow fruits and vegetables healthful for consumers, and are mindful of workers and surroundin­g communitie­s.

When consumers support companies offering locally or regionally grown foodstuff, they help ensure that small farms stay in business for the long haul and bring fresh food to market.

Healthy Options’ all-natural chicken, eggs and pork come from livestock raised in an allnatural environmen­t. Sustainabl­e farms produce crops and raise animals without relying on toxic chemical pesticides, synthetic fertilizer­s, geneticall­y modified seeds.

Through the years, Healthy Options has highlighte­d its “Love Food, Hate Waste” initiative, well aware that food is a valuable resource that must be consumed responsibl­y.

“We believe that our products must not only be good for our customers, but also good for the animals, the environmen­t, the farmers and fisherfolk and everyone else involved in the food chain,” said Healthy Options’ Romy Sia.
