Show Notes
The Environmental Working Groups annual report, released on March 24th, highlights the presence of pesticide residues, including PFAS, on popular fruits and vegetables. The Dirty Dozen list includes spinach, kale, strawberries, and grapes, among others. Health experts advise opting for organic versions of these items, despite the higher cost. The Clean Fifteen list, featuring pineapples, avocados, and sweet corn, shows the lowest residues, with over half having no detectable pesticides. Washing produce helps, but switching to organic for riskier picks is recommended.
