When people ask me how to lose weight, I ask them if they eat organic foods.

Most are surprised that it matters.

But there are at least two reasons for eating as much organic food as possible besides the fact that its better for the planet.

Some studies have shown that organic food is more nutritious although some experts dispute that.

Other studies have shown that the chemicals, pesticides and hormones found in non-organic foods add stress to the body. Stress can make you lethargic, affect your hormones and lead to swings in blood-sugar levels. Chemicals and pesticides also cause inflammation in the body.

Researchers are looking at how certain chemicals used in food affect body weight, leading to a new term called obesogens. Its not yet a household word. But it may be soon, as the evidence linking this group of chemicals to weight gain mounts.

In 2009, a study released by The Endocrine Society linked pesticides to impaired thyroid function. In another report, researchers found a fungicide called tributylin activates the retinoid X receptors in human cells, which led to fat cell formation. And mice exposed to obesogens were predisposed to weight gain later in life, according to research conducted at the University of California.

There are enough red flags that the National Institutes of Health began a three-year research project in 2011 to explore the role of environmental chemical exposures in obesity, type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
