So here's where things stand in 2026... 1. Spinach 2. Kale, Collard and Mustard Greens 3. Strawberries 4. Grapes 5. Nectarines 6. Peaches 7. Cherries 8. Apples 9. Blackberries 10. Pears 11. Potatoes 12. Blueberries According to the EWG’s 2026 shoppers' guide to pesticides, these are – ranked in order – the most heavily contaminated fruits and vegetables. While there is still "debate" about long-term, low-dose, and cumulative exposure effects… I think most of you reading will agree that pesticides are probably not good for humans. And if you can avoid pesticides entirely or at least reduce them, why wouldn’t you? After all, the data pointing towards their potential health ramifications is becoming almost impossible to ignore. So these 12 have to be bought organic.

As a Nutrition Coach, one of the questions I hear most often is, “What should I feed my child if I want them to eat healthier?” As many parents know, that’s not always an easy answer—especially if you’re dealing with a picky eater. The good news is that there are simple, healthy swaps for many popular kid-friendly foods that are easy to find and, in my experience, kid-approved. I’ve included a list of 'better' and 'best' food swaps that I hope you’ll find helpful.

May the peace and joy of the first Christmas fill your heart and home today!
