Absolutely rest four are tropical fruits and the last one is turmeric all have sufficient health benefits.c

And all of them are organic foods which ensure an ailment free life.

True. Turmeric is beneficial as it is antibacterial. I like mangoes no doubt these are delicious and rightly called king of fruits. Ginger and onions too have many benefits may be I need to post some links for it.

In a nutshell all the foods mentioned in the list are organic foods laden with nutrients and blessed with healing qualities. The icing on the cake is, they are free from the pesticides and artificial coloration. This gives an edge over other foods grown using pesticides and fertilizers.

Mangoes not good for people with blood sugar so it is negated for them, and there is no guarantee that mangoes would be free from pesticides and artificial coloration. 

Its all about "Organic food" Organic food means a crop grown without using pesticides and  chemicals.

Recent findings by some organisation revealed that the so-called organic veggies and fruits were actually being spread with chemical pesticides. So when we shell out excessively high prices for 'oragic' labeled stuffed, we should do it from reliable sources.

Definitely. If These organic foods which are more expensive than ordinary veggies also contain pesticides and fertilizers, what's the use for the buyer. We cannot rely just on the labels. Presently traders are employing unethical trade practices.

 

Most of these organic fruits which are being sold in open markets in smaller towns and cites seems to be preoccupied with pesticides and that would be going to have bad to worse effects, and fruits which are being sold at super markets are well priced ahead than retail markets. 

There is no such fruit or vegetable which is free of pesticides when they are sold in market. It's not easy to find anything which is directly plucked from a tree unless you have your own garden.

No. Organic foods are very much available in a limited outlets. They are expensive too.If you want to have organic foods be ready to pay more.

I do not think so most of these foods at their original production sites are lower but due to multi tax system it cost higher, with the introduction of GST bill now you can even pay less which would be initiated in June 2016.

Organic food and nothing else. It's cost is high because of it;s less production because organic food is grown without chemicals, fertilizers and pesticides.

Its cost rises due to the fact most of these foods are in production in compact areas and the multiple tax system rises its price to 140 percentages and the implementation of GST would be helping to reduce price to a considerable and comfortable margin. It is the tax system that matters in pricing part and nothing else.

The government should help in promoting the cropping of organic food and make all the allowances so that organic food can be within the reach of all.

The constraint of some organic foods is that these cannot be planted at every weather and that creates huge price differentiation, in my recent trekking to Jilling, HP, where the town to be reached there with two km walk or pony ride, I found there everywhere there were peaches, apples and oaks and any body can wolf ride on trees to pluck these and eat, but those apples are on higher price in my state, due to double and triple taxation as if those products reaching to use from western countries.

Yes there are constraints. But if you want healthy food, thesconstraints should be overcome by the govrnmentsubsidies.

Is there government subsidies on organic food, I do not think so or I have ever heard of it, it might be there at few states.

No . I said there should be subsidies considering the importance of Organic food.
