Each year, the Environmental Working Group (EWG) examines the latest USDA data and creates its well-known Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen lists. These lists identify the categories of fruits and vegetables that typically have higher and lower pesticide levels, using the most up-to-date information.
However, it’s important not to interpret these lists as a reason to completely avoid any specific fruits or vegetables, even those labeled as “dirty.”
Remember, incorporating a diverse range of fresh fruits and vegetables into your diet remains a fundamental aspect of maintaining good nutrition.
