world health day is april 7, and the american cancer society wants to help you stay healthy by reminding you about the quality and safety of the food you eat.
pesticides are helpful in boosting efficient plant yield and preventing insects from harming plant life. but concerns still arise over pesticides being used for produce consumed by humans, so here are some tips on how to avoid pesticide ingestion from the american cancer society’s health guidebook, nutrition for cancer survivors (2010).
the “dirty dozen” is a list containing fruits and vegetables with the highest amount of pesticide residue. the “dirty dozen” list includes: peaches,ray ban wayfarer prezzo, apples, bell peppers, celery, nectarines, strawberries, cherries,gafas carrera8hNdLågprisflyg.nu - allt om lågprisf, kale, lettuce, imported grapes, carrots and pears.
the “clean fifteen” list, on the other hand, is made up of fruits and vegetables containing the smallest amount of pesticide residue. this list includes: onion, avocado, sweet corn, pineapple, mango, asparagus, sweet peas, kiwi, cabbage, eggplant,Edhardy Sunglasses, papaya, watermelon, broccoli, tomato and sweet potato.
but if your favorite fruit or veggie falls on the “dirty dozen” list, don’t worry; the nutrition guidebook says you can still eat it –by just putting a little extra effort into preparing it. a product spray or produce wash can be used to help remove pesticides. these can be found in your grocery store, or you can make your own (recipes below). even if your favorite foods fall on the “clean 15” list, it never hurts to wash produce–all produce.
