More Chemicals

From the June/July edition of West Coast Families:"Last summer at the University of Washington in Seattle, research found kids who ate pesticide-free food had levels of chemicals linked to neurological damage, leukemia, and other cancers--six times lower than those in conventional diets." 
Here's EWG's list of most contaminated fruit and vegetables:
Fruit:
apples
cherries
imported grapes
nectarines
peaches
 pears
raspberries
