♪ Bob and Brad the two most famous ♪
♪ Physical therapists on the internet ♪
- Hi folks, I'm Bob Schrupp, physical therapist.
- Brad Heineck, physical therapist.
- Yeah, and we are the most famous
physical therapists on the internet.
- In our opinion, of course, Bob.
- You were a little slow to get that out today, Brad.
- Well, it's Tuesday.
- Today we're gonna talk about the dirty dozen,
12 fruits and vegetables you should actually buy organic.
Because, we're gonna talk about why.
- Why, sure.
- I have a good reason.
- You do?
- Yeah, by the way, if you're new to our channel,
please take a second to subscribe to us.
We provide videos on how to stay healthy,
fit, pain free, and we upload every day.
And you're gonna wanna join us on our social media sites.
Brad can get it out here, because especially,
we're always going a giveaway.
And right now, once again, we're doing
the SleepOvation mattress giveaway.
This is just a little sample of one.
- Right.
- So you can see it's got
individual mattresses,
and it's got air flow channels.
- You better believe it.
And they're very comfortable besides.
Okay, Bob.
- Well I'm gonna move this out of the way,
cause this messes up with our light.
- I almost stumbled on myself.
Ah, the aging process is fun.
- Okay, this list was put together by
the Environmental Working Group.
And it took the information off
the U.S. Department of Agriculture list.
So this is legit.
And what they did is they actually ranked
fruits and vegetables, produce, from one to like 47.
If you want the full list, it's at
www.foodnews.org
foodnews.org
- Very good.
- So it ranks them from one to...
and the top 12 are the ones they recommend
that you actually should buy organic.
Because there's as many as 47 different chemicals
they found out on each piece of fruit or produce.
- So they just randomly took these fruits or vegetables
and tested what's on the surface?
- Yeah, what's on them.
And they've found as many as 67 chemicals on some of them.
But at least 47, and so if you wanna avoid
a chemical cocktail when you're eating,
you're gonna wanna go organic on these.
So you wanna pull that list out, Brad?
- Yeah, when you said the dirty dozen,
if you're 50 years old or older,
you're probably thinking the movie.
- The movie, yeah. - With Charles Bronson.
- Charles Bronson, had a whole bunch of stars on it.
- Upside down?
- Let's do it right here.
- Well, sorry.
- And a lot of these, it actually makes sense
because they don't have covering on them,
and it's really hard to clean like a strawberry.
So strawberries are number one.
It was the worst one of the list.
One that I use all the time is spinach.
So my wife and I bought organic this week.
And I was always reluctant,
because it seemed like it didn't last as long.
But this one, I don't know why,
we got a batch and it's as fresh now
as it was at the start of the week.
- [Brad] Maybe it got mixed up?
- [Bob] I don't know, maybe it.
The other one, nectarines and apples,
that's a big one for me too.
I get the sense from what I read
that you really can't clean the apple well enough.
- [Brad] It seems like you could,
cause they got the shiny kind of skin.
- They said they tested these
after they pressure-washed them
with like high pressure-washing techniques
put out by the U.S. government.
So, I don't know.
- I'm envisioning that five horsepower
pressure-washer I use for my deck.
It must be a little different than that.
- Yeah, cause that would just peel
the apple right off, wouldn't it?
Grapes, peaches, cherries, pears,
tom-ah-toes, tom-ay-to, which was is it?
Tom-ah-to, tom-ay-to?
- Tomato.
- Celery, potatoes, and sweet bell peppers.
- Potatoes too, huh?
- I mean cause they're growing underground,
so I wonder how that all works.
- It all sucks it up.
There's these chemicals in the ground, Brad.
Alright, but we're also gonna give you the clean 15.
So these were one that were on the bottom of the list.
And they found very little traces of chemicals on these.
So they thought these were the ones you wouldn't have to...
And when I look at the list, and you guys can read it.
I don't have to read it.
You got it, okay?
Forward a little bit?
- [Brad] Is that your handwriting or did Liz do it?
- [Bob] That's my handwriting.
- [Brad] Oh, that's good for you, Bob.
- [Bob] Not bad, huh.
But I look at what I eat on and...
I eat asparagus some times.
I eat a lot of broccoli and a lot of cauliflower.
So I'm glad to see that those--
- [Brad] Avocados?
- [Bob] I don't eat avocados.
- [Brad] Really, you don't like guacamole?
- [Bob] I don't, I really don't.
- [Brad] Oh wow. - [Bob] I know it's really
good for ya, but I just haven't done it.
- Sweet corn, that makes me feel good.
Pineapple, there's a lot of them on here, really.
- You're still safe, Brad.
You're not gonna start melting down
from a chemical breakdown.
- Ah, kiwis I really enjoy.
I'm surprised that they're in the clean 15 but they're good.
And they're fuzzy little things.
They look like they could be sponges
and just suck everything up.
- Honeydew's got this harder shell on the outside.
- Yeah, that makes sense.
- Anyway, so we're trying to keep you guys
healthy, fit, pain free, and you know, chemical free too.
- Right, exactly.
- So thanks everybody for watching.
We're gonna do a short one today.
- Oh wow, that is short, Bob.
