Highest paid MMA fighters of all time

Over the past few years, such a sport as MMA has gained popularity. Mixed martial arts is a sport that combines the techniques of boxing, jiu-jitsu, kickboxing, muay thai, karate, wrestling, and other martial arts. The sport is still banned in some countries, such as France and Norway.

But despite this, MMA fights managed to gain great popularity in many countries – in the USA, Japan, Russia, and others. The most popular MMA fighters have a huge following around the world and make good money. In this review, we present a ranking of the highest-paid MMA wrestlers in history.

The Chinese edition of the South China Morning Post has published a list of the highest-paid MMA fighters, which includes athletes whose names are known not only to fans of this sport but also to ordinary people. More information about UFC career, UFC fights, and richest MMA fighter rating can be found on superbetting.

Conor McGregor

In the first place on this list is the Irish mixed fighter, Conor McGregor. He is the richest athlete in the history of the sport. Because the spotter is popular, he earns his income not only from fights but also from advertising contracts with well-known brands. However, the main income is still made up of performances in the ring. The official average athlete’s fee for one fight is about $ 3 million. It is worth noting that the athlete receives this amount in any case – regardless of whether the match ends in victory or defeat. In addition, he also receives additional money if he wins the fight, as well as a percentage of stream views and bonuses from sponsors. For example, every fight in the UFC is broadcast by a paid service Pay-per-view, which sends a percentage to the athlete. An example is the fight of Conor McGregor against the Russian athlete Khabib Nurmagomedov – in addition to $ 3 million for the fight, McGregor also received a percentage of the sales of the PPV service, which amounted to $ 50 million. Thus, Conor’s fee for one fight was $ 53 million.

Throughout his career at the moment, the Irish athlete has earned more than $ 400 million in his career. At the same time, his fee in the Absolute Fighting Championship (UFC) McGregor was 22 million.

Khabib Nurmagomedov

The second place in the rating is occupied by the Russian athlete Khabib Nurmagomedov. According to the South China Morning Post, while he also makes good money on mixed martial arts, his income is about ten times less than Conor McGregor’s – about $ 40 million. In addition to the fights themselves, a significant amount of income also comes from advertising contracts and business.

The athlete gained particular popularity in 2018 when he first became the UFC lightweight champion, and then had a famous fight against Conor McGregor, as a result of which he managed to defend his title. Speaking about the fact that he has become popular not only in sports but also in show business, it is worth mentioning that in 2019 the famous Forbes magazine named him the most successful star of show business and sports under 40 years old.

According to Forbes, Khabib Nurmagomedov earned $ 11.5 million in one year from advertising campaigns alone.

For the fight with the famous American fighter Justin Gaethje, the athlete received $ 3 million, as well as a percentage of TV sales and a 90 thousand bonus. For the fight with Dustin Poirier, the athlete received $ 4 million, and for the fight with Conor McGregor – $ 2 million (these amounts do not include bonuses from sponsors and a percentage of the sale of TV broadcasts).

Georges Saint-Pierre

The third place in the ranking of the highest-paid MMA fighters is occupied by the ex-champion of two UFC divisions, Canadian Georges Saint-Pierre. According to the newspaper, his income is $ 30 million. It is known that many athletes were involved in scandals with the leaders of the UFC league due to financial disagreements.

So Saint-Pierre said that in 4 years his salary had grown from $ 3 thousand to millions in royalties. For his first fight in the UFC, when the athlete defeated Karo Parisian, he earned $ 3 thousand, and after losing in the first round during a fight with Matt Hughes, he was paid $ 9 thousand. According to Forbes, Georges Saint-Pierre earned $ 9 million only for fights with Nick Diaz and Johnny Hendrix. According to the athlete himself, the ability to negotiate with the leaders of the UFC league plays an important role.

Brock Lesnar

The fourth and fifth highest-paid fighters of all time are American Brock Lesnar and former UFC two-weight champion BJ Penn.

For his first fight, Brock Lesnar received $ 250,000, and in total, he spent 8 fights in the UFC. The fee for the last fight of the athlete was $ 2.5 million. In addition, the athlete is known to have led UFC 100 and UFC 200 tournaments and received his interest from the sale of 7.5 million paid broadcasts.

BJ Penn

American fighter BJ Penn, according to the championat.com service, is the first non-Brazilian to become the world champion in Jiu-Jitsu. During his career, he earned about $ 22 million, and half of his income came from advertising partnerships with the famous sportswear brand Reebok.

Сonclusion

Thanks to the great popularity of mixed martial arts, the most famous athletes in this sport are making good money. As mentioned above, not only participation in fights brings income to fighters, but also numerous advertising contracts, as well as bonuses from sponsors and percentages from sales of paid broadcasts of matches.

Multivitamins: Are They Worth It?

Multimineral and multivitamins are two of the most common and most popular supplements in the world. It’s obvious as to why that is since they are supplements that help your body be healthier. Over the decades, their popularity has increased exponentially, and it seems that even today, they are still as relevant as sliced bread. 

More or less 50% of Americans take them, especially the older population. People take it for various reasons, too, like compensating for their poor diet or even to help them lose weight. Certain diseases are brought about by the lack of vitamins in our body, for example, scurvy or beriberi. 

However, these conditions are certainly rare in the US since the country has accessible food supplies. So is there any reason to take multivitamins? Plenty. But if you’re still not convinced, here are some things you should know about multivitamins.

What are Multivitamins?

Multivitamins are supplements with many different types of vitamins and minerals, and sometimes, some brands incorporate other helpful ingredients. Since this supplement has no standard, every brand has its formulas and ingredients, resulting in varying nutrient compositions.

Multivitamins also come in different forms, such as pills, powders, capsules, tablets, and chewable gummies. Most brands typically recommend taking two per day for the full effect. That said, make sure to check the label before consuming. Also, be sure to check on your doctor to see if you’re allowed to take multivitamins. Some doctors even recommend some multivitamins themselves.

Multivitamins can be found in drugstores, discount stores, supermarkets, or online if you don’t want to get out of the house.

Nutrient Deficiency

One of the reasons why people take multivitamins is their poor diet. A poor diet lacks an essential mineral or something else that is essential for humans to be healthy. Not to mention that many people don’t only have a poor diet, but also poor eating habits. With that combination, it’s no surprise that many people lack vitamins and minerals in one way or another.

A balanced diet consists of good protein sources, healthy fats, fruits, veggies, and whole grains. This kind of diet has enough vitamins and minerals that a human needs. However, not everyone has the time or energy to prepare one. Not only that, but certain age groups and human conditions are in danger of lacking the essential vitamins.

For example, suppose you’re in the older age group. In that case, the risk of having a poor diet resulting in a lack of vitamins and minerals is higher for various reasons. One example is when an individual has a more limited diet because of health conditions or a poor appetite due to medications.

Pregnant women are also at risk of nutrient deficiency. Getting enough folate is essential for a pregnant woman. This vitamin is important because it reduces the risk of your baby having a spina bifida or anencephaly. Fortunately, you can get this nutrient from various multivitamins for women.

Multivitamins against Whole Foods

When it comes to essential vitamins and minerals, nothing beats what nature provides. This is because most of the vitamins and minerals that you get from whole foods are vastly superior to those you get from supplements. There are even studies that recommend you to consider some things first.

Take broccoli as an example. Broccoli and other cruciferous products have components that are considered anti-cancer and reduce inflammation. Although there are some studies that show that multivitamin supplements have negative effects on the human body, they are in a controlled environment, and the cases these studies have shown are only rare instances.

But of course, not all multivitamins come with health risks and even better in providing some vitamins in our bodies. For example, folic acid is essential for pregnant women since it reduces the risk of certain conditions. That said, folic acid is best when taken in a supplement.

So Which Multivitamins Should You Choose?

Multivitamins come in various forms and sizes like tablets, capsules, powders, and even gummy bears. Their packaging advertises their specific combination of vitamins and minerals. However, supplements are a multi-billion industry, and there are thousands of designer brands out there which makes it hard to choose. 

With that in mind, look for one that contains the Recommended Allowance amounts and the USP approval. This seal ensures that the combination of vitamins and minerals is contained in the supplement. Also, USP conducts tests that ensure that the multivitamins you’re about to make don’t have harmful substances like heavy metals and pesticides.

Final Words

If you’re already eating a balanced diet with lots of water, fruits, and veggies, then you may not need to take multivitamins. If you’re considering taking them, make sure to talk to your doctors first. If they allow it, you can even ask them for recommendations.

Three Inexpensive Ways to Create a Modern Looking Home

We all want to have a home that is cozy and modern. The only thing that may keep us from pursuing our modernization project would be the thought of how much it would cost. After all, the beautiful homes and interior designs we see in magazines or our friends’ homes look expensive and, therefore, elusive. However, creating a modern-looking home does not need to cost an arm and a leg, as you may imagine. With your creativity and resourcefulness, you can have a place that looks exactly how you dreamed it would be. For instance, you can always find cheap fabric to make beautiful curtains and other DIY home decor projects that can enhance the look of your home.
Read on below to learn a few valuable tips on how to create a modern-looking home inexpensively.
Wallpaper or repaint
Two of the best ways to modernize your home are to refresh its walls with a new coat of paint or wallpaper. Nonetheless, it is essential to pay attention to the colors you decide to use. It is best to repaint with lighter shades such as creams and pastels if you have smaller spaces. These colors will make the rooms look more expensive. Darker shades will only make small areas look even smaller. Regarding the wallpaper, it would be a better option to keep away from patterns that are too bright or have too many prints going on. Should you decide on this, you may want to confine it to one wall as a contrast. Busy patterns can also make a room appear cramped. You may also want to pay attention to your doors, repainting them in a complementing shade to give them a fresh appearance.
Neaten the place
It is no secret that decluttering can instantly transform any home into an attractive and cozy place. If you have too many things occupying most of your space, your home will only look cluttered and uncomfortable to live in. Most modern homes are minimalistic, making them more spacious and airier. Keep your surfaces clear of unnecessary items and avoid overdoing the decor. Have a place for everything and keep everything in its proper place. Lastly, avoid overcrowding with furniture that you don’t need. You want to have space to move around, so it would be best to keep your floors clear.
Add a touch of nature
Plants and flowers beautify any room you put them in. Their colors add life and make a home look pleasant and welcoming. More than that, plants are excellent air purifiers that help remove toxins from your indoor air. They can be included in any home’s room to enhance their look further and keep the air clean.
Your home is a reflection of your personality. The home environment can also affect your mood. Thus, it would be an excellent idea to do what you can to make it as attractive and comfortable as possible. Then, you can start your remodeling project without worrying about spending too much. These tips will help you achieve what you set out to do on a budget.

Adopting a Child: Five Reasons to Give Consideration To The Decision

You’ve undoubtedly gone through a lengthy process of attempting to have a child, like many other expectant parents. A variety of factors may have led you to question whether or not you wanted to become a parent, including issues with infertility, the absence of a suitable romantic partner, or just a lack of confidence in your abilities. Whatever the reasons are, you should be mentally prepared to adopt the child and can take help from Florida Adoption Attorney for a hassle-free process.

Many people have their own personal motivations for considering adoption. Nonetheless, the basic desire for adoption and what pulls a family ahead to finalize an adoption should be founded on the proper motives and an accurate grasp of what is involved. There are several things to think about if you’re contemplating adoption. Make sure you are adopting for the appropriate reasons and are ready for adoption before making a final decision about it.

5 Reasons to Make the Decision

The finest adoptions are those in which prospective adoptive parents are able to put the interests of the adopted kid first, regardless of whether they are trying to build a family or add to an existing one. Adoptions that succeed are those in which the prospective adoptive parents are able to put the interests of the adopted kid ahead of their own.

Five good reasons to think about adopting a kid are listed below. Adoption may be a good fit for you if you have any of these driving factors.

  1. Providing a Family for a Child

As long as your primary objective in adopting a kid is to create a loving environment in your house, you are likely to have the correct incentives for doing so. 

Adoptive families that wish to share their beliefs, pass down family traditions, and create lasting experiences with their adopted children have the highest chances of finding a place to call home. Children must be accepted for who they are, including their flaws, and their history and ancestry must be honored. This is part of a healthy approach to raising children.

  1. Life Coaching for a Child

Adoptive parents who want to assist a kid in overcoming the trauma of their past, whether that trauma stems from abuse, neglect, abandonment, or orphanage, have the correct motives to adopt a child. 

Adoptive parents who truly care about the kid’s welfare go above and beyond to assist the youngster in adjusting to his or her new surroundings. They also realize that adoptive parenting has its ups and downs, and they’re prepared for them.

  1. Taking Care of a Child in All Possible Ways

More than just desiring a kid in your house, being ready for adoption entails having the physical room for the child you are adopting. Adopting a kid requires a certain level of financial security on your part. 

For starters, you must be capable of providing food, clothes, schooling, and medical care for the child. In addition, you must be able to devote time and emotional energy to caring for a new addition to the family.

  1. Acknowledging the Adoption

It’s likely that you’re ready for adoption if everyone in your family thinks that adopting a child is the proper thing to do. However, if even one member of your family isn’t on board, you’ll need to take some time and reassess if this is the correct decision for you. A kid who has been adopted should never be placed in a setting that is not accepting or welcoming.

Everyone in your family, including your existing children, must be on board with your decision to adopt. Consider delaying adoption if not all of your children are on board. Attempting to adopt a kid if the youngsters in the household are against the notion is a bad idea.

  1. Knowing That a Child is in Need of a Loving Family

Seeing a kid in need of adoption may prompt you to explore adoption as a possible option. Whatever the cause, you and your family believe that you should step forward and take on the responsibility of providing a safe and loving home for this kid.

Once again, all members of the current family unit must be on board with the adoption before this step is completed. Adopting a product that fulfills a current need is a great incentive.

The Final Pick!

It is a lifetime commitment to becoming a parent. Assuming you don’t already have children of your own, be sure you are prepared for all adoption entails. In the event that you already have children, be sure you have enough time and space to care for another.

Adopted children may face additional difficulties in their lives. There are going to be times when you’ll have to deal with difficult situations. There is no harm in delaying adoption if you aren’t ready yet. Prior to moving forward with the adoption process, be sure you’re ready for everything it includes.

Five Reasons to Sanitize Your Home Using Steam Cleaners

The global pandemic has brought the need for sanitizing into the spotlight. While treatment for Covid-19 is still in the works, your best bet is to practice self-protection and make your home a safe haven. Using hot pressurized steam is a great way to get rid of germs brought from the outside. It is a zero-waste and non-toxic way to combat pathogens!

1. Versatile

By sanitizing your home with portable steamers for cleaning, you not only remove visible contaminants like dirt and dust. Hot steam also acts as a sanitizer. It reduces the number of microbes and bacteria to a safe level and prevents their growth. You can use it on most surfaces in your home, from floorboards to fabrics.

2. Simple and Efficient

How do you feel after cleaning your home the conventional way? This is an arduous task, as you need to exert pressure on all surfaces. Body pain and allergic reactions are common consequences of exhausting housework. Steam cleaning is much more efficient, as you do not need to get up close and personal with the surfaces. Applying pressurized steam requires less effort. Clean and sanitize your space more quickly without the need for elbow grease.

3. Chemical-free

This sustainable method lets you cleanse every crevice and corner of your home without chemicals. Steam removes germs and bad odors without harming the environment, and you do not need to use detergents that may contaminate your food. Clean your furniture and carpets without compounds that could be dangerous to children and pets.

4. Pathogens-eliminating

Hot pressurized steam kills pathogens, such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and dust mites. These are commonly found in most households. To maximize the sanitizing effects, you can also use some non-toxic detergent.

Dust mites are allergens that cause sneezing. The reactions they trigger in kids may even develop into asthma! Steam is a great alternative to traditional cleaning products. You can eliminate dust mites without chemicals that contain allergens themselves!

5. Cost-efficient

Different cleaning tasks require different detergents. With a steam cleaner, you will no longer need to buy special products for the floor, oven, and kitchen countertop. No need for rubber gloves, either! These machines can clean almost anything, from cupboards to car interiors. They are versatile and eco-friendly. Using different attachment brushes, you can clean any type of surface and crevice.

Final Words

Sanitizing is surrounded by a lot of confusion due to fake news and misleading articles. Steam cleaning is an efficient and convenient way to sanitize surfaces, but there are still a few guidelines to follow. Choose a proper temperature for every item (refer to the manufacturer manual). Note that some objects and surfaces are very sensitive to steam. For example, silk, velour, thin plastics, and water-based paint require special care.

What Are the Top Treatment Options for Anxiety? 

Are you someone who struggles with anxiety? If so, you are not alone. There are lots of people who struggle to deal with anxiety, and there are plenty of treatment options available. If you struggle with anxiety, one of the first things you need to remember is that you need to talk to a mental health professional. A mental health professional can take a look at your specific type of anxiety and customize a treatment option to meet your needs. Fortunately, there are lots of ways you can manage your anxiety. What are some of the key points you need to keep in mind if you are looking for anxiety treatment?

Therapy Is the Cornerstone of Treatment

First, understand that therapy is the cornerstone treatment option when it comes to anxiety. Therapy is important because it can help you understand why you suffer from anxiety. If you can get to the root cause of your issues, you might be able to develop a treatment plan to address them. If you are having trouble finding a therapist to help you manage anxiety, you should reach out to your primary care doctor. He or she might be able to provide you with a referral to a therapist in the area. The hardest thing about therapy is taking that first step. Once you get in a rhythm, therapy can dramatically help you improve your ability to manage anxiety.

Understand Abortive vs. Preventative Medication

Next, you must understand the difference between abortive and preventative medications. Both of these medications can be helpful in managing anxiety. As the name suggests, abortive medication can help you abort an acute panic attack. Some of the most common symptoms of a panic attack include rapid breathing, a high heart rate, sweating, and an impending feeling of doom. If you are developing a panic attack, short-term benzodiazepines might help you stop this in its tracks. Your doctor may prescribe you a short-term benzodiazepine in the event of a panic attack; however, you do not necessarily have to use them. A lot of people feel better just knowing they’re there.

On the other hand, you may need to take preventative medication as well. These medications are designed to prevent you from developing a panic attack. These are medications you may need to take every day. Many of these are long-term benzodiazepines; however, if you do not want to take this class of medication, there are other options available. What you need to do is talk to your mental health professional about options that can help you prevent panic attacks from taking place.

Build a Strong Support System

Furthermore, you need to build a strong support system. One of the biggest reasons why people develop anxiety is that they feel like they have to face their problems on their own. You need to find ways to build strong relationships with your family members and friends. That way, if you are feeling stressed, you have someone you can talk to. If you feel like you don’t have to face everything on your own, you might have an easier time managing symptoms of anxiety. It can be difficult to build a strong support system because you have to open up to others about your internal feelings. Therapy can help you overcome this challenge.

Give CBD a Try

Finally, you might want to consider getting CBD a try. CBD stands for cannabidiol, and a lot of people use it to manage mental health issues. It can also be helpful for managing anxiety. If you are interested in giving CBD a try, you may want to take a look at Weedmaps to learn more about some of the dispensaries in the area. Then, you can talk to a professional at one of the dispensaries and find a CBD product that might work well for you. Before you try CBD for the first time, you should keep your therapist in the loop. Let your mental health professional know that you are thinking about trying CBD for anxiety.

Find a Way To Treat Anxiety

In the end, there are lots of people who suffer from anxiety. Therefore, if you are dealing with anxiety, there are lots of people who can relate to what you are going through. Furthermore, there are mental health professionals who can help you manage anxiety. It is important for you to talk to others because you can build the skills you need to cope with symptoms of anxiety. That way, you may be able to leave prescription medications in the rearview mirror. Finally, there are other treatment options as well. For example, you may want to try CBD. There might be some local dispensaries in the area, so consider trying CBD to help you manage anxiety. This can help you improve your quality of life.

Himiway Launches Four New E-bikes

Himiway promises a more exciting fall this year, thanks to the upcoming launch of 4 new cutting-edge electric bikes from the company. Watch livestream here.

Himiway is pleased to announce the upcoming launch of its 4 types of brand new e-bike models in January 2022 of next year. The electric bike company recently released the teaser for the upcoming models; even though the teaser doesn’t reveal elaborate details about the bikes yet it has already created a  lot of buzz in the outdoor adventure world. Going by the tradition with other Himiway bikes, the upcoming ones too would be under affordable range,  with prices comfortably ranging between $1,000-under$3,000.

The 4 new Himiway bikes that are slated to be launched in January 2022 are – Softail Supreme E-bike, Multifunctional E-bike, and Premium All-terrain E-bike.

“We are thrilled to share that we will soon be launching 3 types of state-of-the-art new electric bike models come fall. While one of them would be the most innovative model from our lineup ever, another one would be an advanced utility bike that would be handy for your daily affairs. The third one is exclusively designed for outdoor enthusiasts and would make a robust partner for your off-road adventures across all terrains”, stated the leading spokesperson from Himiway.

As per the reports, Softail Supreme and Multifunctional models would be new additions to the company lineup. On the other hand, the Premium All-terrain E-bike is speculated to be the successor of the Himiway’s crowd-favorite Cruiser Electric Fat bike. However, these are just speculations- the Premium All-Terrain version may be a completely new variation for all-terrain electric bikes as well.

The Softail Supreme model stands out as the “most innovative” electric bike ever built by Himiway. Engineered with cutting-edge “first-notch” suspension (especially rear and front, based on softail designation), the bike promises to deliver an all-new experience for the riders. Going by the Himiway teaser, the model would be priced somewhere around $2,099 to say, under $4,000.

The second one, Multifunctional E-bike, is being dubbed as an all-rounder that would make a valuable addition to a busy and active family. From ferrying children to making deliveries to quick grocery shopping sessions, the bike has been designed to handle all. The bike will be $2,099.

The Premium All-terrain Electric Fat Bike is an advanced crossover between mountain and urban electric cruiser. As the name suggests, this model is especially designed for off-road adventures and has been equipped with major required features like, extended battery and incredible speed. The upcoming bike will also impress with its stylish looks. As Himiway hasn’t mentioned about fat tires with this bike, the model is likely to be a completely new model from the company. However, the other descriptions sound very similar to that of the previous Cruiser fat bike from Himiway. In regard to cost, the bike is speculated to come around $1,999.

360 MAGAZINE is an avid fan, and you can check out our very own Vaughn Lowery as a newly appointed ambassador for Himiway here.

About Himiway

A pioneer of electric bikes in the American market, Himiway specializes in manufacturing advanced fat tire electric bikes at affordable ranges. The company is based in California, USA, but has recently expanded to markets globally, covering all of the USA as well as Canada, the U.K., and Germany.

The Six Best Places to Visit Over Christmas

Christmas is right around the corner, and it’s time to get your plans in order, especially if you want to spend some time alone before being surrounded by family over the Christmas period. You won’t be short of things to do, whether it’s visiting winter markets or entertaining small children, with six of our favorite cities to visit over the winter period.

New York, USA

New York City is one of the most beautiful cities to visit in December, full of festive activities for everyone. Whether you’re a first-time visitor to the city, or have been several times, there are always new experiences to be had; from seeing the Rockefeller Christmas Tree and skating in Central Park, to simply walking around and looking at all the festive displays.

Copenhagen, Denmark

Known for its variety of Christmas markets, Copenhagen is one of the most popular places to visit over the winter period. Denmark is also the home of Hygge, which believes that people deserve to live their coziest and comfiest lives surrounded by family, with Christmas being a time that celebrates this belief. From eating good food to holding a cup of mulled wine as you walk among the famous markets, you’ll have a festive experience to remember.

Organic Wines Are Conquering the World: Here is Why

Thanks to the proliferation of wellness influencers on Instagram and the popularity of cleanses and detoxes, today’s consumers are far more conscious of what they are putting into their bodies than they have ever been before. And wine should not be an exception to this rule.

Unfortunately, wine is often considered an afterthought, with bottles bearing familiar labels and attractive names being placed into the shopping cart alongside organic veggies and free-range, organic eggs. And that is entirely illogical.

Wine is a source of comfort and pleasure, and it is something we can enjoy together at home or through virtual happy hours to help make these difficult times a little more bearable for everyone. So while the emphasis is on immune-boosting foods and staying healthy, the type of wine we drink should be part of that conversation as well, which is why today we’ll be talking about the popularity of drinking organic wine and how it is conquering the world and gaining popularity at online platforms such as 8wines.

What does “organic wine” mean?

In any case, whether you are familiar with the world of wine or not, it is very likely that you have heard the term “organic wine,” which refers to a centuries-old tradition that has been resurrected in recent years.

It is not exactly defined or regulated, but it is essentially grapes produced in the vineyard without the use of pesticides or herbicides, harvested by hand, and spontaneously fermented with wild yeasts that are local to the region. There are no additives, no filtrations, and no manipulations in this product’s production. Organic wines are genuine, pure, unadulterated, and unadorned.

Reasons to fall in love with organic wines

The environmental effect of a bottle of organic wine is significantly lower compared to a bottle of wine from a standard vineyard. However, this is only one of the numerous advantages that many people are unaware of when they come across a bottle of wine labeled “organic” in a retail establishment.

Therefore, we prepared a list of some reasons to fall in love with organic wines and start including them in your lifestyle.

No pesticides

There are no pesticides, herbicides, or fungicides added to organic wine, which means it has a higher purity level than conventional wines. When making organic wine, the grapes used are not subjected to any kind of pre-harvest chemical treatment. Contrary to organic wine producers, conventionally managed vineyards spray their fields to protect the plants from disease, which results in the disease-resistant plants showing up in your wine glass in the process.

Benefits the environment

Organic wines are prepared from grapes sourced from farms and vineyards that have not used genetically modified seeds for at least three years before harvesting them. Growing in healthy and nutritious soils allows them to develop a diverse population of natural microorganisms.

Organic agriculture is concerned with maintaining healthy soils that are filled with life in order to ensure that the vineyards are sustainable over the long term. On the other hand, by refraining from using pesticides, it is necessary to maintain and care for natural enemies, which in turn commits to the preservation and promotion of a diverse ecosystem in some way.

They have a more expressive flavor

Because they do not get fertilizer, the vines are nourished by the soil and its minerals, allowing them to express the actual character of the region from which they originate. It’s similar to the difference between garden lettuce that is full of taste and hydroponic lettuce that is clean and attractive but bland in flavor.

Fewer preservatives

Organic wines are required by law to have fewer sulfites, a preservative that is often used but is believed to be the cause of a nasty hangover after drinking them. In addition, wines with fewer sulfites have a higher level of intensity.

Contain a lot of vitamins and minerals

Since organic wines, in contrast to regular wines, are grown in vineyards using organic ingredients and contain fewer toxins that are hazardous to humans, organically grown grapes include higher levels of Vitamin C, iron, phosphorus, and magnesium. And, we know that all of them serve to maintain our bodies natural defenses and keep our bones strong.

How are organic wines produced?

The use assures more excellent quality of organic wine of organic yeasts, which are virtually always harvested from the previous crop during the manufacturing of organic wine.

The cultivation of organic vineyards entails taking good care of the land and causing more negligible environmental effect while also supporting biodiversity and providing superior quality in terms of nutritional component content.

Those who cultivate and make organic wine must do so with high awareness, attention, and care, as the harvests are considerably more vulnerable. Accordingly, the combination of these three elements and the artisanal component present when working the grapes allows the wine to achieve its full expression, allowing us to have a taste sensation of natural and fresh flavors.

Is it worth buying organic wine?

The use of chemicals in wine production, which helps to reduce costs, might result in organic wines being more expensive than ordinary wines in some cases. Additionally, because organic wines do not contain sulfites, the bottle’s shelf life is substantially less than that of conventional wines.

Despite the fact that high-quality organic wines are not always inexpensive, we can often find them at reasonable prices, allowing demand to keep up with supply and new consumers to become acquainted with the growing trend in wine.

The relevance of organic wines continues to grow even though they account for only about 3.6% of total global wine consumption. According to industry estimates, this subcategory is expected to see the most significant increase in demand in 2022. Almost one billion bottles of organic wine are expected to be consumed worldwide by 2023.

Given all of those mentioned above and existing trends toward organic foods, it is anticipated that demand will steadily increase over time, resulting in a decrease in the price of organic foods.

As we can see, there are no longer any grounds for not experimenting with organic wine and experiencing the benefits of doing so as soon as possible. So the conclusion is that investing in this product and being familiar with the benefits that this one-of-a-kind product will bring is an intelligent investment in our future.
