Twelve most important foods to always eat organic

Can an apple a day keep the doctor away? Not if it is conventionally grown! I have been watching my grocery bill climb each month to new heights. I know it can be challenging to feed a family on a budget. I like to buy organic food whenever I can, but sometimes they are not available and can be expensive. In the summer I buy from the local Farmers Market affordable, locally grown organic food. But that is not always an option due to weather, being busy and the seasons.

Here is a list of the 12 worst foods to eat if they are conventionally grown and not organic
and a list of 15 foods that are the best for you when you can’t by organic and must buy food conventionally grown. By just eliminating these 12 foods unless they are organic, you can cut your body’s consumable pesticide intake by up to 90 %. That’s quite a lot.

Additionally in our home we do a couple of things every meal to raise the vibration of our food so it better nourishes and sustains us. First, we always bless the food and all the hands that it passed through to make it to our table. Second, we use an Eco Laser, available for sale on this website. It has a focused and structured light beam which emits a powerful fast acting coherent energy for clearing and balancing environments. We use this on all our foods and beverages. You can taste the difference.

Why Should You Care About Pesticides?
The growing consensus among scientists is that small doses of
pesticides and other chemicals can cause lasting damage to human
health, especially during fetal development and early childhood.
Scientists now know enough about the long-term consequences of
ingesting these powerful chemicals to advise that we minimize our
consumption of pesticides.
What’s the Difference?
EWG research has found that people who eat five fruits and
vegetables a day from the Dirty Dozen™ list consume an average of
10 pesticides a day. Those who eat from the 15 least contaminated
conventionally-grown fruits and vegetables ingest fewer than 2
pesticides daily. The Guide helps consumers make informed choices
to lower their dietary pesticide load.
Will Washing and Peeling Help?
The data used to create these lists is based on produce tested as
it is typically eaten (meaning washed, rinsed or peeled, depending
on the type of produce). Rinsing reduces but does not eliminate
pesticides. Peeling helps, but valuable nutrients often go down the
drain with the skin. The best approach: eat a varied diet, rinse all
produce and buy organic when possible.

How Was This Guide Developed?
EWG analysts have developed the Guide based on data from nearly
89,000 tests for pesticide residues in produce conducted between
2000 and 2008 and collected by the U.S. Department of Agriculture
and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. You can find a detailed
description of the criteria EWG used to develop these rankings and
the complete list of fruits and vegetables tested at their dedicated
website, www.foodnews.org.
