How many of you like eating fruits and vegetables daily, trying to stay healthy.
You will take ,for example, apple and u r in hurry as always, so u will nt wash it very well.
What u dunno, there are some residues of pesticides on it. But, yeah u dnt have time to think even abt that.
Here are some types of toxicity cuased by pesticides:

General toxitic categories

CATEGORY SYSTEM AFFECTED COMMON SYMPTOMS
Respiratory Nose, trachea, lungs Irritation, coughing, choking, tight chest
Gastrointestinal Stomach, intestines Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea
Renal Kidney Backpain, urinating more or less than usual
Neurological Brain, spinal cord Headache, dizziness, behaviour confusion, depression, coma convulsions

Dermatological Skin, eyes Raches, itching, redness, swelling
Reproductive Ovaries, testes, feotus Infertility, miscarriage

this is a table btw,

Love fruits and vegetables .. Washing them !! Not if I was in hurry :p ..

Chemicals are also inside them not only on the surface .. So I think about it twice and sometimes three time or more .. But still eating them is better than leave them .
