An EWG study on fruits and vegetables showed which products had the highest pesticide content. Apples have the most chemicals and onions the least.
New research shows that apples on the market are the most contaminated compared to other fruits and vegetables we buy. After apples, peppers and celery are among the most dangerous products on the market.
The EWG study aimed to identify fruits and vegetables that are most dangerous to eat because of their high content of chemicals. The safest fruits and vegetables for consumption are also determined.
The purest were onions, pineapple and sweet corn. According to experts, they have the lowest content of chemicals.
Researchers claim that 68% of the products studied contain pesticides, as well as some chemicals that are banned for use in agriculture.
Organophosphates have been found in some of the fruits, which can cause problems in the nervous system. Such dangerous residues have also been found in baby food.
The most polluted products on the market are apples, celery, peppers, strawberries, nectarines, grapes, spinach, lettuce and cucumbers.
Accordingly, the safest to eat are onions, pineapple, sweet corn, cabbage, peas, apricots, mangoes, avocados, eggplants and kiwis.
At the same time, experts warn consumers to be careful with the salamis they buy because some traders are pushing old sausages, sausages and fillets.
To give them a fresher look, the merchants smeared the salami with vinegar. But the alluring appearance certainly did not make them edible.
The old sausages were rubbed with a cloth soaked in vinegar until they swelled and acquired a shape, after which they were returned to the shop windows.
In the old salami, dangerous pathogenic microorganisms develop, which cause gastrointestinal disorders and can lead to dangerous food poisoning.
The Food Safety Agency calls on customers to alert even the slightest suspicion of such products in the market network.
