Clean 15 / Dirty 12

At Wilcox Wellness & Fitness, we strive to help you live the healthiest life possible by giving you the tools and resources to make small changes that can have a large impact on your health.  This image outlines the top 12 fruits and vegetables that have been found to have the highest levels of pesticides when conventionally grown.  These pesticides can cause a negative impact on your health.  Strive to purchase organic fruits and vegetables that are listed on the dirty dozen.  This image also shows the clean fifteen – the fruits and vegetables that have the lowest levels of pesticides when conventionally grown.  Of the items listed on the clean fifteen, money can be saved by buying the conventionally grown option over to the organic option.  The best choice for the most nutrition options is always organic and local available at Bangor area farmers markets.
