Pesticide-Free Food
From the June/July edition of West Coast Families:
"Last summer at the University of Washington in Seattle, research found kids who ate pesticide-free food had levels of chemicals linked to neurological damage, leukemia, and other cancers--six times lower than those in conventional diets."
We try to feed Ella organic food: fruit, vegetables, grains, and meat. But it's expensive, and not always easy to find. If you don't have the budget to buy all organic produce, pick and choose wisely. Here's EWG's list of most contaminated fruit and vegetables:
Fruit
apples
cherries
imported grapes
nectarines
peaches
pears
raspberries
strawberries
Vegetables
bell peppers
celery
potatoes
spinach
