What it means	The word 'natural' on packaging is a marketing term, not a certification. In most jurisdictions there's no legal definition, no standard, and no inspection. A product labelled 'natural' can contain synthetic ingredients, pesticides, GMOs, and artificial flavours.	Mexico's national organic mark, administered by SENASICA under the Ley de Productos Orgánicos (LPO).
Scope	Several categories	Food
Established	—	2006
Inspection	None	Annual on-site, SENASICA-accredited
Residue testing	None	Required
Guarantees	Nothing. It is not a certification and there is no body verifying anything.	≥95% organic ingredients per LPO. Annual on-site inspection by SENASICA-accredited certifier.
Does NOT	Doesn't mean organic. Doesn't mean pesticide-free. Doesn't mean GMO-free. Doesn't mean ethically produced. Some markets (e.g. the US FDA on food, EU on cosmetics) place very limited restrictions on the word, but enforcement is weak.	USDA equivalence is granted product-by-product, not blanket.
