Do you have to consume organic nuts? The type of nut that has the most pesticides is the walnut. Peanuts actually have more pesticide residues, but they are legumes, not nuts. Many different types of nuts can potentially have a lot of chemical residues on them.

Pesticides can’t penetrate the hard shell of a nut. But, the nuts are sprayed with pesticides after they are picked and cracked open. So, the nuts can have a good amount of chemicals on them.

If possible, it may be best to consume organic nuts. However, they’re very expensive. So, try to at least buy nuts that are fair-trade, which may have fewer chemicals. Another good alternative is to buy them in the shells and deshell them yourself.

Ideally, it’s best to consume organic nuts. If you can’t, don’t consume large amounts. Consuming cruciferous vegetables on a regular basis can potentially help reduce the toxic effect of environmental toxicities.
