The PESTICIDES sprayed on your food don't stay on your plate. Traces show up in your urine. 1 simple switch for 1 week cuts those traces by 89%. It was a trial in Melbourne, Australia, with 13 adults. They ate at least 80% organic for 1 week, then returned to their usual diet. An organic food company co-founder donated part of the funding. So here's a study with no organic money behind it. A US team switched 40 kids aged 3 to 6 to organic food for 7 days. Government grants paid for that one. Their insecticide traces fell 40%. Traces of a common weedkiller fell 25%. When the kids returned to their usual diet, their levels rose again. In the clip, Brenda Eskenazi, a UC Berkeley researcher on that study, explains what they found. Both studies were small and short. And organic isn't pesticide-free. But eating organic cut those traces in both. That's why I'd rather not eat pesticide-coated produce when I have a choice. On a budget? Start with the produce you eat most often. And washed conventional produce still beats skipping it.
