nonsynthetic
Derived from nature
Nonsynthetic means not made by chemical synthesis—occurring naturally or derived from natural sources rather than manufactured artificially.
The term appears most often in contexts distinguishing natural from artificial materials: nonsynthetic fibers like cotton and wool, nonsynthetic vitamins extracted from food sources.
In philosophy, a nonsynthetic statement is one that doesn't combine separate concepts to create new knowledge.
