The Environmental Working Group (EWG) annually releases two crucial lists for health-conscious shoppers like us—the “Dirty Dozen” and the “Clean Fifteen.” These lists, updated every year, help us discern the fruits and vegetables that are most and least contaminated with pesticide residues, guiding us in making choices that honor our bodies.
Did you know that a family history of conditions such as cancer or dementia doesn’t automatically dictate your health future?
