EWG analyzed pesticide residue testing data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Food and Drug Administration to come up with rankings for the following popular fresh produce items. All 48 foods are listed below from worst to best – lower numbers indicate more pesticides.
Note: EWG analyzed pesticide tests of 48 popular produce items. Domestic and imported versions of two items – blueberries, green beans and snap peas – showed sharply different results, so we have ranked those domestic and imported items separately. As a result, the Shopper’s Guide displays 51 entries. Find out more at: https://www.ewg.org/foodnews/list.php#.Wbp0L8iGOyJ

I used to work in gyms for the free membership, do cardio on the treadmills, and get advice from people I thought were in shape. Then I worked for a professional strength coach and it changed the way I thought about personal training. I did not know improving core strength could alleviate if not eliminate low back pain and get people up and moving again. I did not know that a strong cardiovascular system meant greater energy and improved mood for work and play. I did not realize I could help someone improve their self esteem, vitals, relieve stress, or strengthen the body armor for old age. The last part took longer to realize, but it’s safe to say with consistency of effort… I can change your life through fitness!
