Avoiding Pesticides in Your Food

Choosing organic produce grown by local farmers is your best option, but we all know that isn’t always possible. When purchasing commercially grown produce, try to avoid the ones that are grown with the most pesticides and chemicals, and stick with the ones lower in pesticides. Here’s a list to guide you in your shopping:
Foods High in Pesticides: Apples Bell Peppers Celery Cherries Chile Peppers Imported Grapes Nectarines Peaches Pears Raspberries Strawberries Tomatoes	Foods Low in Pesticides Asparagus Avocados Bananas (although I've heard conflicting reports about insecticides) Blueberries Broccoli Brussel Sprouts Cabbage Cauliflower Eggplants Grapefruit Kiwifruits Mangoes Okra Onions Papaya Pineapple Plums Radishes Watermelon
