With a list of toxins, pesticides, chemicals, etc... showing up everywhere in our daily life, the food we eat, the air we breathe, the products we use, & on & on. There are small things we can do to help decrease our exposure. One thing is buying organic. I know it's a bit more pricey so here I have attached a list, one you can print out & carry with you to the grocery store, listing the fruits & veggies you should buy organic vs. the ones you can save some $ on.
I always tell my clients I would rather see them eating lots of veggies & fruits (although not to be overdone, the fruit I mean, they do contain lots of sugar) even if it means they can't afford organic. However if your budget allows, follow this list to help reduce your intake of toxins. These foods contain higher amounts of pesticides, as a general rule, if you are eating the skin "buy organic"

Peaches
