Thanks for your comment. First of all, please re-read page two of the article; you are confusing two statements. The study referred to the amount of pesticide residues children absorb by their first birthday; the 90-95% statistic is where pesticide residues are found (predominantly in meat, fish, and dairy products).

Here's a link to one article that addresses pesticide residues in children: http://ehp.niehs.nih.gov/realfiles/members/1995/Suppl-6/thomas-full.html

In terms of detoxification, our bodies do their best to keep us healthy, but the level of toxins we are exposed to in the 21st century is far beyond what we were designed to handle. When our channels of elimination become overloaded, the body begins to store toxins in fat cells. This article goes into more depth: http://www.emagazine.com/view/?3010

I also have an extensive recommended reading list which I'd be happy to email you. A few books on it: Staying Well in a Toxic World http://www.amazon.com/Staying-Well-Toxic-World-Understanding/dp/0965365913/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1271350218&sr=1-2 Never Be Sick Again http://www.amazon.com/Never-Be-Sick-Again-Health/dp/1558749543/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1271350450&sr=1-1

Hope this is helpful!

Blessings.
