organic living & the dirty dozen

[miki]

organic lifestyle is a funny thing. living it is even funnier. you may be either overly organic or not organic enough. the main goal is to prevent as much pesticide / pesticide residue as possible from the body. i agree with organic produce but i'm not so sure about organic linens, tampons, and toilet paper. being organic is interesting

thanks for the link! that org also has a cosmetic carcinogen report, and apparently many Nars blushes and other products are bad.. yet i continue using them anyways :P

no problem. i have to admit that i was rather paranoid after reading the list though. i mean, those are fruits that i normally eat ... conventionally grown =/

oh man, don't even get into the cosmetic carcinogen. you might as well just rub minerals on your face and call it a day. :)

"Because the toxic effects of pesticides are worrisome, not well understood, or in some cases completely unstudied..."

Cause for concern? maybe in the end, the amounts are so minute that eating non-organic foods can be as healthy as drinking tap water?

Food for thought.
