always find it. Our new Guide — now in its 5th edition —
features the 12 fruits and veggies with the most and least
pesticides so you'll know which ones to buy organic, and

They do not address the "Organic Scam" (Giigle search)>
www.google.com/search
Nor do they mention the disposal
of toxic chemicals in fertilizers .... including
fertilizers used with some "organic" food that is grown.
Many of the toxic chemicals are not tested for, because
they should not be there .....
One example of a Google search result on "Fateful Harvest"
Book review article:
Fateful Harvest, by Duff Wilson -

I see soil in a new light, and I wonder about my own lawn
and garden. What have I sprinkled on my backyard? Is somebody using my home, my....

Of course, if this is true, there would be instances to
show when and where such toxic chems have been detected
in organic food.
The CDC found toxic chemicals at "levels of concern"in many healthy"
Americans. The CD researcher stated in a news article that the main
source of exposure is food. The article is titled
" Troubling chemicals detected in people" (August 26, 2000),
The Internet Archives Wayback Machine has an archived copy of the article
web.archive.org/web/200501.../tcdip.html The article has been censored from the Internet at least three times.
Verifiable at a public library, too:
Troubling chemicals detected in people, by Daniel P. Jones ,
The Hartford Courant , also published by The Seattle Times
Company Posted at 12:00 a.m. Pacific; Saturday, August 26,
2000
It is worth noting:
When they detected perchlorate in the food, baby green
organic lettuce had the highest levels. If the chemical had
come from the river (as EPA researchers had said) there
would not have been such a variance in levels of tre
chemical is the foods tested. It would have been far
more uniform. Of which tipped me off and so I looked
deeper into it. I had sent information to Senator Boxer's
office, but never heard back.
Google searches:

A book that was lost in the 9-11-2001 news;

A DIRTY SECRET --------------.
Chenical companies disposing ot toxic chemicals as fertilizer.
And the laws have been changed to make it legal. Why
should they pay expensive disposal fees when they can
sell their toxic waste ?

Now just what do you think might be wrong with our
health care system ?
U.S. Lags in Toxicity Testing,
Wednesday, May 3, 2000, Los Angeles Times
Congressional study reviewed more than 1,400 chemicals that pose
potential threats to human health and found that only 6% are
being tracked by HHS and the EPA.
