Antibiotics

Federally regulated organic standards prevent antibiotics being used in the production of certified organic meats. In the Eat Well Guide, farmers who never administer antibiotics to their animals carry the label “no antibiotic use.” Some sustainable producers will use antibiotics to treat animals that fall ill, and in this case, food from those animals cannot be sold as “USDA certified organic” or with the label “no antibiotic use.” Eat Well Guide producers who only use antibiotics when an animal becomes ill carry the label “no routine antibiotic use.” In these instances, a suitable amount of time must pass after an animal is treated and before its meat, milk or eggs can enter the food supply.
