Study - Feed your Kids Organic Whole Foods

"University of Washington researchers tracked a group of preschool children - 18 with organic diets and 21 with conventional diets - and analyzed their urine for evidence of exposure to five different kinds of toxic pesticides. They found that the average total was six-to almost nine times higher for children with conventional diets than for children with organic diets. Conclusion? Consuming organic fruits and vegetables can provide a relatively simple means for parents to reduce their children's pesticide exposure."
