on the flip side, when plants are sprayed with herbicides, pesticides and all sorts of nasty stuff, they begin to shut down their natural defenses, as the chemicals are now doing that job and the plants are much less nutritious and healthy because of it. when we eat these plants, we receive much less benefit than their organic counterparts.
from my experience, 'science' is a term that has a much different meaning in food circles than it does in the laboratory.
