Abstract

Regular fruits and vegetables (F&V) consumption is linked to a lower risk of certain cancers. However, F&V can contain pesticides, some of which may have carcinogenic properties. Organic foods are thought to reduce pesticide residue exposure, but the relationship between organic consumption and cancer risk is inconsistent. Notably, to our knowledge, no study has explored substituting conventional with organic F&V.
