Originally Aired Wed, 04/13/2011 - 1:00pm

Judy, Rhonda and Teri address the following questions: What are pesticides and contaminants that can be found in foods frequently eaten by children? What are the effects of pesticides and contaminants? What are the worst foods? What are the safest foods? What can we do to prevent contaminants in our children's foods and supplements? (produce wash, buy organic, testing, etc.) If we do ingest contaminants, what are some supplements that help support our body to detoxify them and support the relevant organs? (liver, kidneys, excretion, antioxidants)

Doing either would risk serious (and in some cases could have irreversible) consequences.
