Food Toxins: more than a third of fruit contain pesticide

Man-made industrial and agricultural chemicals, are severely contaminating our planet, disrupting nature's cycles, and deeply affecting humans and wildlife alike.

We are consistently exposed to a cocktail of hazardous chemicals, everyday of our lives. It’s a serious modern threat, and its full impact on us, and on future generations is yet unclear.

The food we ingest is laden with hormones meant to fatten up cattle and poultry. Our hormones are further disrupted by chemical fertilisers and pesticides used by farmers (around 72 different pesticides are sprayed on fruits and vegetables) as well as by the antibiotics that animals consume with their feed.

The recent scare of mercury in fish ironically makes so-called healthy foods seem rather hazardous.

More than ever now, you should watch what you eat:
It is estimated that around 1000 different chemicals are present in our daily food, even in the one we think is healthiest!

Government data shows that over 90% of fresh salmon, more than a third of fruit and vegetables, and 40% of cereal products, contain pesticide residues.
