Which Fruits and Vegetables Have The Most Pesticide Residues?  (Infographic)

There is a misconception out there that buying organic produce gets you more nutritious food.  With a few possible exceptions, this is simply NOT the case.  What buying organic DOES get you is produce largely free of pesticides and herbicides which, I promise you, have a much greater influence on your health than the relative levels of various nutrients.

Pesticides and herbicides commonly used on conventional produce have been shown time and time again to be toxic, hormone-disrupting and even carcinogenic.  

Keeping these dangerous chemicals out of your body is why it is worth it 100x over to buy only organic produce.  This practice is simply essential to building and maintaining vibrant health.
