Mother should I build the wall?"

Many of the popular, conventionally grown fruits and vegetables are purchased by the public believing that they are making healthy choices. What people don’t realize is the fact that foods that are not grown organically are treated with potent pesticides and other poisons to speed up their growth, make them grow larger or prevent them from common pests. Below is the list of 15 widely available foods that are found to be heavily contaminated by pesticide and other chemical substances – as per tests conducted by EPA. Because of high contamination level, unless you can get organic versions of these foods, you should avoid them at all costs. Foods listed below don’t have a protective barrier and become thoroughly contaminated which means you’ll be absorbing these harmful substances even if you wash or peel them prior to consuming. To make matters worse, these foods are often treated with really heavy chemicals many of which could lead to serious health issues, including development of cancerous tumors:

In our previous list of foods you should buy organic we focused on foods that show excessive residue of pesticides in edible parts. To keep things balanced, here is the list of foods you don’t have to buy organic, because they either do not require pesticide treatment – thanks to their natural pest resistance – or because these foods have protective layer (a peel) which prevents absorption of pesticides by the edible parts.

This being said – it is recommended to eat organic food whenever possible. Aside from being good for your health, organic foods is also good for the Earth. It is essential to point out that “organic” doesn’t necessarily mean “100% pesticides free”. Produce of every kind is subject to fungal and/or mold deterioration but most of all – unless you have grown the produce organically yourself – all you have to work with when buying organic from the grocery store is someone’s pledge that the products you are purchasing truly are organic. Unfortunately, seals of approval as well as all other forms of certification can be purchased because people are easily corrupted by money.

Despite of all potential downfalls, conventional foods are more or less guaranteed to have gone through pesticide treatment whereas with organic foods you stand much better chance of eating healthy. Still, thanks to natural abilities of some foods to resist pests or to protect parts that we eat from outside agents, the foods from the list below would be generally safe even in non organic versions. Without further ado, this is the list of low pesticides foods you do not have to buy organic:

NaturalNews) Did you ever wonder how health insurance companies drum up future business? It's easy: Just invest in companies whose products cause chronic degenerative disease, driving people towards more health care needs and therefore more health insurance.

And that's exactly what the health insurance industry is doing. A new article published in the American Journal of Public Health reveals that U.S. and Canadian health insurance giants own nearly $2 billion worth of stock in fast food giants like McDonald's, Burger King, KFC, Taco Bell and others.
