Los Angeles: Socialite Nicole Richie resorts to organic food in a bid to keep her children as healthy and safe as possible.
The `Simple Life` star is said to be a "strict" mother to daughter Harlow, two, and seven-month-old son Sparrow – her children with rocker fiance Joel Madden - and is determined to use only natural products when she cooks for them, reported a magazine.
"Nicole is obsessed with doing everything she can to try to keep her children healthy and safe. She insists on everything being organic. The food, the diapers, the clothing.
She`s always at whole foods," said a source.
Richie, who grows her own vegetables, has also banned the use of mobile phones around her children because she is worried that it could have a harmful effect on them.
"She thinks the radiation can be damaging and won`t let cell phones near her kids," the source said.
Nicole also uses chlorine-free, non-toxic and hypoallergenic diapers for her children, as well as takes other steps not to damage the environment while caring for her youngsters.
