Organic oranges cost over 3 times as much as conventional oranges in my area, and I was wondering if anybody has any info regarding the types of pesticides used in growing conventional oranges, and if they have any estrogenic inducing properties?
As well, how well do orange peels prevent pesticide from reaching the inside fruit? According to ewg's pesticide produce list, oranges rank 31 out of 50, but I'm not sure if this really means anything.
What's better, drinking more conventional fresh squeezed orange juice, or less of the organic kind?
