Many of us that make a transition from canned and processed foods to raw fruits and vegetables begin in the produce section of our local super-market, but how healthy are those foods really?
Your fruits and vegetables can come from a number of sources. Locally grown is probably the safest bet, found at your local farmers market. If you don’t have the time, or don’t want to pay the premium that goes along with locally grown foods, than the grocer is the next best thing, however just because you are buying those raw fruits and vegetables doesn’t mean that one is the same as the next. A bundle of oranges might be cheaper than buying the individual variety but pay attention to those stickers. You just might be loading yourself up with chemicals or something that isn’t a raw fruit at all but instead something created in the lab.
