What is the best time to buy certain fruits and vegetables?
As a rule of thumb for buying produce in general, as well as for a cleanse program, it is always best to buy items which are local and seasonal. Local being best for the environment as it removes the need to fly a mango 3,000 miles, and seasonal because the produce is the most fresh. If you are eating an apple during the summer months in New York City, you can be sure it has flown from many miles away, and therefore cannot have it’s vital life force intact.
