Organic produce has become much more readily available, but of course we all notice that it costs more than regular (conventional). Different plants retain pesticides at different rates, so by choosing wisely, you can get the most wellness for your money by choosing to buy organic when the produce is known to have a high pesticide residue.
Top 5 Produce to BUY ORGANIC (high pesticide residue)
1. Peach
2. Apple
3. Bell Pepper
4. Celery
5. Nectarine
Top 5 Produce with low pesticide (conventional is not as bad)
1. Onion
2. Avocado
3. Corn
4. Pineapple
5. Mango
