Ok I'm not really a nutrition nut, but why are people who buy organic foods crazy or gullible or whatever? And wouldn't this study vary from country to country, based on food standards and such?

In the USA, obesity rates %-wise are super high, and talking to a pretty knowledgeable friend, he said it has a lot to do with the growing and preservation of food and how the food isn't digested properly or whatever that causes % of obese Americans to be so much higher then Canada (for example). Since I'm trying to work a little on my fitness and diet, I'm told I should go towards organics for food with more protein per, or carbs per or whatever, so the actual nutrients and whatnot in regular foods is lower, and thus harder to build muscle and whatnot.

Any comments would be welcome
