Did you know that a single serving of some fruits and vegetables can expose kids to unsafe levels of some pesticides? In the US it has been found that ONE SERVING of winter squash exposed 77% of kids to unsafe levels.

You may think that this applies only to fresh produce - but think again. Processed food, meats and dairy all come from these same raw ingredients, and the pesticides can be concentrated even further.

Organic, or homegrown is best!

The above is from a fabulous new book called "Unsafe at any Meal: How to Avoid Hidden Toxins in Your Food" by Dr Earl Mindell's.
