PergeSubridere Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Here is a great resource when grocery shopping for fresh, packed foods and personal care items.....https://www.ewg.org/ The Environmental Working Group’s (EWG) mission is to empower people to live healthier lives in a healthier environment. With breakthrough research and education, we drive consumer choice and civic action. We are a non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to protecting human health and the environment. They have a great app for your phone so when shopping you can scan bar codes and check for toxicity in foods and personal care products! https://www.ewg.org/apps/ DIRTY DOZEN + FRUITS AND VEGGIES - this list is rated, #1 strawberries harboring the most pesticides EVEN AFTER WASHING/SCRUBBING THEM ALWAYS PURCHASE THESE ORGANIC if you possibly can!!! Strawberries Spinach (any and all leafy greens for that matter) Nectarines Apples Peaches Pears Cherries Grapes Celery Tomatoes Sweet bell peppers Potatoes Hot Peppers Cucumbers Cherry Tomatoes Lettuce Snap peas Blueberries Kale / collard greens Green beans CLEAN 15 - If you cannot afford everything organic, these foods have less toxicity if not grown organically * A small amount of sweet corn, papaya and summer squash sold in the United States is produced from genetically modified seeds. Buy organic varieties of these crops if you want to avoid genetically modified produce. Sweet Corn* Avocados Pineapples Cabbage Onions Sweet peas frozen Papayas* Asparagus Mangos Eggplant Honeydew Melon Kiwi Cantaloupe Cauliflower Grapefruit Happy shopping!
