Organically Grown Fruits and Vege's

[Monica]

Unfortunately, even organic fruits and veggies can have pesticide residue, though less, presumably. I'm so glad I have a machine that makes an emulsifying water that removes the surface pesticides (which are oil-based), and makes the produce last much longer in the frig. (For example, 1 week for strawberries, instead of 2 days.)

I still buy organic whenever possible, though. I think it's important to support organic farmers. Yes it costs more, but I see it as an investment in my family's health.

If you have a yard, plant some fruit trees! Then you get free food. If you have a small balcony or patio, get a vertical container garden, and plant some greens. Greens are very easy to grow, but expensive to buy. Strawberries are also easy to grow. And peppers. Easy. Purslane is a wild weed that's higher in nutrients than spinach, tastes like spinach, and is the only land plant with naturally-occurring EPA and DHA (Omega-3 essential fatty acids). It's easy to grow.

This is what I have. It doesn't take much space, there's no weeding, and it can grow 50+ plants! I love it!

There was a recent study about the high levels of pesticides found in children, and how they dropped drastically after just 2 weeks of eating organic.

Whatever can kill a bug, can kill a human! It just takes longer.
