Robbie Raugh, fitness and wellness expert and RN says we know fruits and vegetables are good for us, but we want to make sure we don’t eat pathogens, dirt pesticides, herbicides and all that. The FDA recommends washing your fruits and vegetables under cold running water. Robbie recommends that you do a little more. Maybe soak the fruits and vegetables if they have many layers. Robbie has a recipe for you and it consists of 250 ml of water with a tablespoon of lemon or lemon juice, two tablespoons of baking soda and a cup of white vinegar. Mix all of that together and wash or soak your fruits and vegetables with it. She says bugs may be present even with organic. So if it’s organic or not organic, then it’s a good idea to wash your fruits and vegetables
