Short 8 min video gives a pretty fair summary of where most scientists land on the subjectm


Short answer: Not really, with one exception. They may have less pesticide residue which may positively impact your health (scientists are still unclear about that).


If you choose to eat organic where should you start (Claud AI)

The fruits and vegetables that benefit most from being organic are generally those where you eat the outer skin or where pesticide residues tend to be highest. Here's what to prioritize:

Highest priority for organic:


Strawberries, spinach, and leafy greens (kale, collards) consistently top the lists for pesticide residues

Apples, grapes, and peaches - thin skins that absorb more pesticides

Bell peppers, hot peppers, and cherry tomatoes

Celery - no protective skin and lots of surface area

Nectarines and pears


Medium priority:


Blueberries, raspberries, and other berries

Green beans and snap peas

Cucumbers (if eating skin)

Summer squash and zucchini


Less critical (lower pesticide residues):


Avocados, pineapples, and papayas - thick protective peels you don't eat

Sweet corn, cabbage, and onions - natural protective layers

Asparagus, eggplant, and cauliflower

Cantaloupe and honeydew (though wash outer skin well)

Sweet potatoes and regular potatoes (if peeling them)
