Moreover, the shell is where is found the highest levels of pesticide residues, they warn.\n<\/p>\n \n\t\u00a0\n<\/p>\n \n\tBefore eating fruit and vegetables all nuts, they should be washed thoroughly, sometimes special vegetable brush, but not with detergent or soap.\n<\/p>\n \n\t\u00a0\n<\/p>\n \n\tLet fruits and vegetables in cold water for 15 seconds after you’ve washed to minimize the level of pesticide residues. In the case of leafy vegetables such as cabbage and lettuce, carefully wash each part leaves and leaf removal from the surface.\n<\/p>\n \n\t\u00a0\n<\/p>\n \n\tManifestations of pesticide poisoning<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n \n\t\u00a0\n<\/p>\n \n\tEPA (Environmental Protection Agency – EPA) in the USA has made a list of all events that may occur as a result of exposure to pesticides commonly found in vegetables and fruits.
