Monday Mentions 💛 - EWG Dirty Dozen + Clean 15
Environmental Working Group.↓ |
EWG’s 2023 Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce™ is finally here, and the results are shocking! Strawberries were again on top of the Dirty Dozen list with 22 different pesticides on one single strawberry! Buying organic is the best option because they are less likely to have traces of pesticides. While organic produce is the better option, is it sometimes hard for you to find organic produce in your grocery store? Or are you financially strapped and can't afford to pay the extra money for organic produce? Stick to the EWG CLEAN FIFTEEN™ list of the fruits and vegetables because they are least likely to have pesticide residues when organic options aren’t accessible or affordable. The EWG DIRTY DOZEN™ list helps you know what fruits and vegetables you should buy organic whenever possible. Another recommendation for the fruits and vegetables that are on the DIRTY DOZEN™ list, is for you to grow them yourself. In case you missed it, I just wanted to give you a quick reminder to get free early access to the new garden/farm planner Seedtime. It’s the first home garden planner that lets you easily visualize exactly when to seed, transplant, or harvest in your garden all year long - based on your location. Till next time 💛 |

Monday Mentions March 6, 2023 The most important thing that no one can take away from you is the power of your will. ↓ The power of your will is not valued as it should be. Your will is basically: the ability to control one's own actions, emotions, or urges strong determination that allows one to do something difficult But how do you control your actions, emotions or urges when your decisions are being influenced by what others think of you, what you hear social media tell you, and even what...
Monday Mentions February 27, 2023 If physical activity was increased by just 25%, 1.3 million deaths could be prevented. ↓ This is a bold statement, yet so true!
