At SanTan Natural Medicine, for all of our patients, whether they are participating in the hCG weight loss diet plan, hormone replacement therapies, or natural pain management, we stress that foods that are treated with pesticides be eaten organic to minimize the exposure to toxic chemicals.

Here are the Fruits that are treated with the Most Pesticides that should be eaten organic:

1. Peaches (worst)
2. Apples
3. Nectarines
4. Strawberries
5. Cherries
6. Grapes
7. Pears
8. Raspberries
9. Plums
10. Oranges

Fruits with the Least Amount of Pesticides:

11. Bananas
12. Cantaloupe
13. Cranberries
14. Honeydew Melon
15. Grapefruit
16. Kiwi
17. Mangoes
18. Papaya
19. Pineapple
20. Watermelon (least)

There is a good reason I separated the worst fruits for pesticides from the least. If you only avoid the pesticide fruits on the worst list, and go organic, then that alone will reduce your pesticide exposure a whopping 90%.
