If you haven't gather so far, I'm one of those crunchy, granola eatin', tree-huggin', hippie-like, health-nut kind of girls. But more than that, I'm someone that is PASSIONATE about helping and educating people so they can make the best choices for where they are at this point in their lives. Where I am today and where I started from has been a long, winding road, and maybe one of these days I will write about it in more detail. In that time, I've learned quite a lot about nutrition, fitness and overall wellness and well being. I;m stil a work in progress though; just want to share what I've learned so far on this journey. Until the time comes to sit and write all about that, here is your "Mission For The Week":
Eliminate the "Dirty Dozen"!
What is the Dirty Dozen? It is the list of produce that is highest on the list of being most toxic, with pesticides and herbacides. These are things that you want to avoid, and making the right choices in the produce aisle is the best place to start.
Here is the current list of the "Dirty Dozen":
One good rule of thumb is, if you eat the skin, you want to buy it organic. If you think the price for the organic is too high, then don't buy them at all. There are plenty of choice available of items in season that are affordable that you can bypass the overly expensive choices for awhile.
So, starting this week, when shopping, choose the organic versions of the produce on the "Dirty Dozen" list. You and your families health is worth it!
