CONVENTIONAL GROCERY-BOUGHT FRUITS

The old aphorism “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” has been proven true for centuries, but most nutritionists today have this to say: “not when it’s conventional!” There’s no telling how many Americans are aware of the 2020 Dirty Dozen list and how apple ranks no. 5 on the list. Apparently, most store-bought apples are one of the most highly contaminated fruits on the market today.

So are the grapes which rank at no. 6 and the other fruits that we all love to eat. Blueberries rank 17th in the ratings, despite being credited as the darling of the healthy food world. Guess it’s always best to grow your own organically.
