Is Washing Your Apples Useless? Let’s Talk Pesticides
Ever wondered if rinsing your apples actually does anything? Or if the "organic" label is just a clever marketing ploy? In this eye-opening episode of A Survivor’s Guide to Health, PJ Aubrey—psychology grad and health & wellness coach—uncovers the disturbing origins of modern pesticides (spoiler: it starts in WWII), the health risks still lurking in your produce, and what you can actually do to protect yourself.
You'll learn how the same chemicals once weaponized for warfare made their way into our food system, how pesticides affect your body over time (think hormone disruption, fertility issues, and more), and how to shop smarter without blowing your budget. Plus, get a breakdown of the Environmental Working Group’s Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen—your new best friends in the produce aisle.
🎧 Whether you’re a health junkie, a busy parent, or just someone trying to make better choices, this episode offers practical, empowering steps to help you thrive.
