re: High Pesticide Residues Found on Fruits and Vegetables

I'm pretty worried myself about eating commercially sold vegetables. I am trying to eat healthy after having had a terribly unhealthy diet, so I need to go the healthy route; however, I needed some sort of affirmation regarding pesticides.

I've been eating frozen vegetables, which retain more nutrients, but I wasn't sure about pesticde content. I thought i might be getting loaded on chemicals since I noticed signs in my organs (like dull pains) which I never felt before. I'm trying to discern whether it is my body organs cleaning themselves out, or a reaction to toxic matter. I don't know that I feel too comfortable with the reactions so far.

We'll see how this all turns out... ~Karen

So glad the truth is being told about the poisons that exist on our fruits & vegetables today. We usually buy organic; but the other day I needed some lettuce and when I went to look at a beautiful red lettuce, I noticed water on one of the leaves and a milky substance in the water. Don't know what that substance was, but didn't trust that it would be healthy, so I didn't buy the lettuce. Instead returned to the organic vegetable counter. It's better to grow our own, but when possible we should buy the healthier choices. Thank you! Margie
