These lists are made to inform you, not scare you. You always want to incorporate fruits and veg into your diet! We like to aim for at least 5 servings per day. Just be sure to allocate your resources wisely- if you can spring for organic, it's more worth your while to tackle the Dirty Dozen. Clean 15 are usually thick-skinned foods that you peel- you can go conventional on these!
