Food for thought....
Dear sisters, it is a new year and I know that we are all aware that our diets have a significant impact on our health. While we are aware that buying organic foods are a great way to go, the food budget may not permit or have limits....consider this...some foods it really does not matter if it is organic...for example: a bananna.
The "most" contaminated produce are the following and you may wish to consider organic with these foods.
Peaches, Apples, Sweet Bell Peppers, Celery, Cherries, Lettuce, Grapes (imported) Spinach, Strawberries, lettuce.
While the absence of chemicals is best, we can also focus on regional and seasonal produce that does not have to travel great distance to get to our local market.
