Do frozen fruits contain pesticides?!
Answers: If so, is it more then fruits bought at the grocery. I know best is fresh but I live in cold temp. area and I cant grow my own. Thanks.
Unless they are organic, yes.
Try and get fresh if you can.
I hear that frozen fruits are really good for you because the nutrients are preserved!! :-)
If they were grown with pesticides then they will have them when they are frozen too. I imagine it would be the same for any other fruit you buy. If you are very concerned find organic at some place like Whole Foods.
The pesticides and herbicides depend on how the fruit is grown and if it is organic or not.
Juicing fresh, organically grown fruits and vegetables would be your best bet and it would provide you with the max when it comes to nutrients.

Yes. There's pesticides on ALL produce whether organic or not. The SOURCE of the pesticides is what differs. Non-organic uses chemicals which is the cheapest/least healthy way. Organic uses pesticides derived from natural sources. There's no commercial farm that's going to risk it's entire crop by not using pesticides in one form or the other.
The produce you need to watch mainly is produce you buy in the colder/non-growing seasons. These are almost always imported and some other countries don't have the same strictness in their regulations that the U.S. has. I'm not saying the U.S. is the most strict or vigilant. I'm just saying that there's worse countries.
yes, unless it's organic then it doesn't have pesticides
