The Dirty Dozen

I know it has been forever since I posted something. I have been doing some research lately on feeding my family Organic foods and switching our house cleaning supplies for more environment friendly alternatives. As far as food, I found out a list of foods that have the most pesticides in it. It is recommended that you go organic on these when possible.

1. Peaches
2. Apples
3. Sweet Bell Peppers
4. Celery
5. Nectarines
6. Berries
7. Cherries
8. Kale
9. Lettuce
10. Imported Grapes
11. Carrots
12. Pears

Jillian Michaels, trainer from The Biggest Loser and author, also recommends you go Organic as much as possible with

1. Meats
2. Dairy
3. Eggs
4. Coffee
5. Any food you eat a lot

I purchase Earth's Best Organic Baby Food jars for our baby boy. Here in FL, Publix has them on sale often Buy One Jar Get One FREE and I use a $1 off 10 jars coupon. I save them in the pantry so I can have enough until the next sale comes.

Hope this little bit of info helps.

Stay Healthy!!
