CLEANING FRUITS &
VEGETABLES?
Both
the conventionally-grown and organically-grown fruits and vegetables are
contaminated with insecticides, herbicides and fertilizers, even the Niagara
region’s fresh crops. The soil has dirt, sand, grit, as well as bugs, grubs,
slugs and insects. The crops are handled many times at various stages of
harvesting, shipping and at other venues.
“Even
after washing, lettuce was found to have high levels of bacteria such as
Pseudomonadaceae, Enterobaceria, Staphylcoccacea and listeria”
(journal
reference Food, Science and Nutrition 2017, November 5(6):1215).
“Washing
helps a little, not much” Dr. Lina Velikova, MD).
Hazards
of handling crops:
1.crops
with rinds such as avocado and cantaloupe need brushing and washing since the
cutting can spread organisms
2.melons
– do not buy as pre-cut
3.wash
the exterior of cans, jars, bottles
4.shellfish
(actually not healthy due to sea contaminants) contain organisms
5.some
fruits and vegetables are nearly impossible to clean eg. cauliflower
