Our friends at Earth Easy have compiled a list of tips that will help reduce our exposure to pesticides – and the link is at the end of our commentary.

Millions of gallons of pesticides are used worldwide – however despite the assurances of the companies, these things kill bugs stone cold, so how can they really be fine for us? These substances end up in the soil, waterways and absorbed into conventionally grown produce.

One of the great problems is that the long-term effects of low level toxicity are not really known. With such a chemical cocktail surrounding and entering us, how can we be sure which of the chemicals is harming us? Side effects of some pesticides are thought to include cancer, neurological complications, reproductive effects and impaired fertility. It’s a really alarmng thought, but thankfully The Environmental Protection Agency has restricted the use of some of the most toxic pesticides. ^[1] However, we still have to make sure that what we’re eating is safe, and the simplest way is to minimize exposure. Why take the chance?

There are some fruits and vegetables that have been found by scientists to absorb these chemicals more than others and they have become known as the Dirty Dozen. These are considered some of the most important ones to buy organic form the point of view of avoiding pesticides. Here’s the list:

1. Apples
2. Celery
3. Cherry Tomatoes
4. Cucumbers
5. Grapes
6. Hot Peppers
7. Nectarines
8. Peaches
9. Potatoes
10. Spinach
11. Strawberries
12. Sweet Bell Peppers

Plus:

1. Kale/Collard Greens
2. Summer Squash

Keep in mind that almost all of these fruits and vegetables are eaten raw, so it’s very important that you wash them thoroughly before eating. There are fruit and vegetable washes that are being sold in the market right now but you can also make use of your own concoction. Just mix equal parts of vinegar (white or ACV) and water. For soft-skinned fruits and vegetables, you have to soak them for a few minutes before rinsing them off with water. The acetic acid in the vinegar will also help kill the bacteria and it also helps break down the wax and the pesticides. This solution is way cheaper than the ones that are sold in the market.

Thankfully, many people have become more aware of the artificial methods of controlling pests. Going organic is the easiest way to stay away from the health hazards of pesticides. Try planting your own fruits and vegetables in the garden and adopt organic farming methods like companion planting (close planting of different plants to protect each other from pests).

This Crazy Off Grid Device Literally Makes Drinkable Water From Fresh Air:

According to NASA, the U.S. is expecting a 100-YEAR LONG MEGADROUGHT.

Every survivalist knows that water is of critical importance. You NEED an independent water source that you can count on!

As an interesting "survival rehearsal" - imagine that you turned the tap on right now and nothing came out. How long would you last?

But what if there was another water source literally hidden in plain sight. That's right, I'm talking about the atmosphere!

The amazing thing about getting water from the natural moisture in the air... is that it is ALWAYS available.

This gives you real water security!

� What Tinnitus Does To Your Brain Cells (And How To Stop It)

After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.

As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.

Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...

Most People Don't Have The Guts To Try This:

An amazing discovery in an abandoned house in Austin, Texas: A lost book of amazing survival knowledge, believed to have been long vanished to history, has been found in a dusty drawer in the house which belonged to a guy named Claude Davis.
