Organic vs. Conventionally Grown – What’s the Difference?
Kevin Gianni from Renegade Health shows a nice visual of what the difference is between organically grown and conventionally grown produce. Especially important to remember is about the little kids – the chemicals effect them even moreso than an adult and builds up fast in their little bodies.
If you eat conventional produce, make sure it has a peel or removable skin on it like bananas and avocados. Check out EWG’s Guide To Pesticides In Produce to see the chart from the highest (peaches) to the lowest (onions) in chemical residue. I think Kevin’s image in the video above is enough to make anyone think twice about what they are actually allowing to go into their bodies to nourish their cells. Do you think those chemicals nourish your cells – or maybe do something else?!
