Am I the only one that has gone to eating only meat and dairy because the risk of long term poisoning from pesticides and fertilizers used to grow fruits and vegetables is too great, even with organic produce?

That's dumb. The cows eat the same poisons and they get concentrated into the meat and milk.

pesticides and fertilizers today are way less harmful than they used to be. the bigger problem is residual toxins from older and more poisonous pesticides and fertilizers that remain in the soil for decades and still get absorbed by the crops even though those older pesticides haven't been used in a very long time.

So we'll die at 70 instead of 80 and there is nothing we can do about it. Big deal

What about fruits with thick skins like bananas or oranges?, the pesticides will be on the skin that you dont eat anyway

You know that all the meat and dairy you're consuming was from animals that have invariably eaten all that pesticide/herbicide laden food you're trying avoid, right?

They use their stomachs and liver to get rid of the toxins. The muscles are only made of nutrition.
