Pesticides are a part of the agriculture industry. They allow farmers to grow crops with higher yield on less land than ever before in the history of the world. They kill insects and fungi that could harm crops. There are various regulations and safeguards in place from the FDA and EPA to keep our food safe. These regulations, however do allow for trace amounts of pesticides in food.
Even trace amounts of pesticides can be harmful. Consumption of pesticides in produce can contribute to a variety of health conditions and diseases. Cancer, obesity, and diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, infertility and birth defects, and autism have all been provably linked to pesticides in food. All of these conditions require the treatment of a medical care professional. Professionals trained in treatment of environmental factors such as pesticide exposure can assist in a treatment plan for more complete personal health.
