DIRTY DOZEN, or 13, or 15????? 

 

                        Which fruits and vegetables should I buy organic????

Of the fruits and vegetables you buy every week, which should you buy organic?  I often have wondered yet, it seems tough to figure out....

The Environmental Working Group's Shopper's Guide to Pesticides identifies fruits and vegetables that have the highest and lowest pesticide residues... you should check it out!!!

If you know someone who has kids, please forward this to them.  Kids are the most vulnerable to pesticide intake.

This year’s Dirty Dozen:

1. Peach
2. Apple
3. Bell Pepper
4. Celery
5. Nectarine
6. Strawberries
7. Cherries

 In the EVE.....instead of reaching for the chips!!!

~~many people try to “tough it out”, but end up eating too much at dinner.  Rather than a small snack, try having a ‘second lunch’ – something a little more substantial like a protein shake, a cup of cottage cheese with some fruit, or a low calorie frozen meal.  Then, you can do your cutting back at dinner time.

Staying Hydrated, Reading your Body.

Staying hydrated you maybe become dehydrated before you are actually thirsty, this is one reason that athletes learn to drink on a schedule; 2 cups of fluid every couple of hours.  15-20 oz. every 15 minutes to get started.  One way to monitor your hydration id to monitor the color of your urine and it should be pale yellow or clear. A darker urine color usually means concentrated an indication that you should increase your fluid intake.   Other liquids (such as Fuel) added to your intake each day will help, yet they do not replace the consumption of water itself!!!
