Pesticide Chart
I found this handy little chart online - you can print it out and put it on your fridge. They rank produce for pesticide content. If you find yourself confounded by the organic question, this is a good guide to make life easier: apparently, you can lower your pesticide exposure by buying 90% organic for the 12 worst on the list! The attached chart has the worst 12 and the best 12.

This life-saving information gives you the power to survive and thrive through treatment and beyond.

*Note from Kris: This is a very thorough guide for western treatments and resources. They promise to include more integrative recommendations in the future, especially better nutrition advise as theirs is a bit dated. The rest of what they have to offer is stellar.
