Dear John,
Concerned about pesticide residues in your food? As featured in the Guardian, The Independent and the Daily Express our list of the ‘dirtiest’ fruit and vegetables reveals the 2020 produce most likely to contain cocktails of multiple pesticides.
But the UK government tests a very small selection of different food items and the list changes every year. So to give you a more complete overview of which fruit and vegetables are most likely to contain pesticide residues, PAN UK has analysed and collated government data from 2018, 2019 and 2020 and turned it into a handy list you can stick on your fridge or in your back pocket when you go shopping.
A fully organic diet can be hard to access but our ‘Dirty Dozen ([link removed]) ’ list can help you to work out which produce to prioritise.
There is a growing body of evidence that pesticides can become more harmful when combined and the ‘cocktail effect’ has long-been recognised as an area of concern in the UK. Despite this, little has been done to understand or prevent the human health impacts that may occur due to long-term exposure to pesticide cocktails. Find out more about the cocktail effect ([link removed]) .
And do read more about pesticide residues in grains ([link removed]) and the impacts of different types of pesticides on your health ([link removed]) .
