The DD list has not changed a lot over the years because these particular produce items have thin skins that are easily penetrated by pesticides and\/or are hard to peel.<\/p>\n<h3>But did you know that some skins are well worth consuming, especially if grown organically?<\/h3>\n<p>Here are some suggestions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #00b4a5;\"><strong>POTATO<\/strong><\/span> skin is high in fiber, vitamins B and C, potassium, calcium, and iron.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #00b4a5;\"><strong>PEACH<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0skin offers vitamin A, carotenoids (an antioxidant), and fiber, and may counteract the growth of eye cataracts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #00b4a5;\"><strong>EGGPLANT<\/strong><\/span> skin is a veritable factory of antioxidants \u2013 the more purple the skin, the better.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #00b4a5;\"><strong>WATERMELON<\/strong><\/span> rind contains an amino acid called citrulline that can take nitrogen out of the blood and ease muscle pain.

According to GMO Free USA, scientists in Japan are using CRISPR gene-editing technology to quickly develop a new generation of tomatoes that are high in GABA, the amino acid believed to supplement the nervous system and provide a variety of potential health benefits. Among the benefits are lowered blood pressure, calmer nerves, and better sleep, to name just three.<\/p>\n<p>Gene editing makes it unnecessary for scientists to hybridize plants over generations and years to obtain desired results. Instead of changing one gene at a time, this so-called \u201cmultiplexing\u201d can make many changes at once. But as much as the industry likes to tout the use of CRISPR as precise and accurate, mounting study data raises doubts.<\/p>\n<p>So for now, spare us these \u201cmodern\u201d lifestyle additions to our diet. What\u2019s to prevent these tomato experiments from creating off-target or unintended mutations, just as we have seen with older GMO corn, soy, and other genetically engineered products that have entered our food supply? And when, pray tell, will there be human safety trials? Until these gene-editing experiments prove to us, with scientific certainty, that they are safe and deliver what they promise, we\u2019ll keep getting our nutrients from fruits and vegetables that are grown in the soil and come from farms \u2013 not factories, thank you very much!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n<span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><div class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_0 et_pb_row_empty\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div> Each year, the Environmental Working Group (EWG) shares the 12 fruits and vegetables, called the Dirty Dozen (DD), whose pesticide content should make you take a pass on conventionally grown produce and buy organics.
