Organic milk contains the same ingredients as regular milk but does not have GMOs, growth hormones or antibiotics in it.

Organic milk is similar to the same milk that is non organic except for the absence of the GMOs, antibiotics and growth hormones.

The organic milk comes from cows like regular milk does but with organic milk the cows are fed organic feed and the cows are not treated with any growth hormones or antibiotics or given any synthetic growth hormones.

Organic milk is healthier than non organic milk due to the absence of the GMOs, growth hormones and antibiotics.

At least 30 percent of a cows diet must come from pasture to meet the standard to be called organic milk.

Organic milk can't contain antibiotics or synthetic growth hormones, and typically has no pesticide residue (though technically some could drift onto organic crops from neighboring fields).

Organic cows are also given more time outdoors to eat and not be cooped up indoors.

Organic cows are fed a diet free from artificial additives, chemicals and genetically modified ingredients, and the routine use of antibiotics in the organic system is banned.

While milk alternatives don't contain antibiotics, they may contain other additives.

The main difference between organic and regular milk is in the way that milk is produced.

Both organic milk and regular milk are nutritious, provide similar nutritional qualities and can be part of a healthy meal pattern.
