DM asked:


I am working toward a raw vegan diet and have concerns about the non-organic produce that I’ll be using since organic is scarce where I live. What cleaning methods should I use? How much nutrient loss is there in non-organic vs organic? Your suggestions are appreciated.

Is there really a difference from organic and non-organic fruits and veggies?

Corey asked:


I recently started a raw vegan diet and I am reading that because of all the pesticides in normal grocery shop veggies and fruits, I should purchase organic.

The problem is, there is not near store that sells organic food, and I don’t have a car. I certainly don’t think I’ll be able to walk/bus for 3 hours every few days.

But if my health counts on it, I suppose I must.

Some input please?
