Restrictions on the use of Toxic Pesticides in Fruits and Vegetables

Further restrictions are being made by the European Food Safety Agency regarding the consumption of conventionally grown foods in the USA with two neurotoxic pesticides (acetamiprid and imidacloprid) that can influence the development of the nervous system in children.

Both of these risk present a significant risk for people, especially children.

These have been detected by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) in residues of both neurotoxic pesticides on various types of fruit and vegetables conventionally grown as apples, pears, and even baby food.

As always, the food that often has the worst pesticide concentrations remains the apple, due to its natural tendency to mushrooms and insects, it is heavily treated with various pesticides that we find also in apple and derivative juices, followed by strawberries, celeries, and peaches.

For parents, the advice is always to favor organic fruit and vegetables, especially for the nutrition in early childhood.
