The Nanjing Agricultural University recently did a study which has proven that plants can absorb toxins such as Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons, and also the pesticides that are sprayed on them.
I will be including a couple of links for you to check out for further information about the plants rate of absorption.
It disturbs me that this important information hasn't caught the attention of people who think that it is still okay to eat fresh fruits and vegetables as long as you wash them off with tap water.
It is a shame that we are living in such a toxic world where 'Healthy' foods are no longer deemed as being healthy once they are planted into the ground.
The only thing that I can suggest is that we can either decide to grow our own fruits and vegetables (preferably indoors), so that they will be free from pesticide toxins, or we can check out the selection of organic foods at our local grocery stores.
The video that I am including will hopefully make you think twice before you eat your next apple.
This video shows you how to clean pesticides off of fresh produce.
Here are some links for you to check out for further information.
