This Family Switched To Organic For 2 Weeks, And The Results Are Simply Amazing
Simply eating mostly organic foods for two weeks can dramatically reduce levels of pesticides found in the human body, a study in Sweden has found.
The same study showed that members of a family who ate a conventional modern diet had high levels of pesticides in their urine.
“The results of the survey clearly show that some pesticides are absorbed into the body through diet,” a summary for the pilot study states. “By choosing organic products, it is possible by and large to avoid the consumption of these chemicals through food.”
The study was conducted by the IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute — an independent research body — at the behest of the Swedish retailer Coop Sverige AB. In the study a family (the Palmbergs) agreed to eat only organic for two weeks.
The family ate a conventional diet for two weeks, and then researchers took urine samples from Mats and Anette Palmberg and their three children and found 20 different pesticides. The Palmbergs then ate organic food for two weeks and researchers discovered that nearly all of the pesticides had disappeared from their bodies.
