Amayeza okubulala izitshabalalisi kunye nezinye iikhemikhali zikuyo yonke into oyityayo kwivenkile yokutya ukuya etafileni yakho. Kodwa siye saqulunqa uluhlu lweziqhamo ezili-12 ezinokuthi zibe neekhemikhali, kunye neziqhamo ezili-15 ezinokuthi zibe neekhemikhali.
Nokuba uthenga ezona ziqhamo zintsha kunye nemifuno, uthenga kwindawo ye-organic kwivenkile enkulu, okanye uthabathe ngesandla iiponti zeepesika kwifama yendawo, kufuneka zihlanjwe phambi kokuba zitye okanye zilungiswe.
Ngenxa yengozi yeentsholongwane ezifana ne-E. coli, i-salmonella, kunye ne-listeria, i-cross-contamination, izandla zabanye abantu, kunye nemichiza eyahlukahlukeneyo ehlala kwimifuno eluhlobo lwe-pesticides okanye i-preservatives, yonke imifuno ifanele ihlanjululwe kwi-sinki ngaphambi kokuba ifike emlonyeni wakho. Ewe, oku kubandakanya imifuno ephilayo, njengoko i-organic ayithethi ukuba i-pesticide-free; ngokulula kuthetha ukungabi namayeza anetyhefu, nto leyo eyingcamango ephosakeleyo eqhelekileyo phakathi kwabathengi abaninzi begrosari.
Ngaphambi kokuba ukhathazeke kakhulu malunga neentsalela zezibulali-zinambuzane kwimveliso yakho, cinga ukuba iNkqubo yeDatha yeDatha yePesticide (PDF) yeUSDA yafumanisa ukuba ngaphezu kwe-99 pesenti yemveliso evavanyiweyo yayineentsalela kumanqanaba ahlangabezana nemigangatho yokhuseleko ebekwe yi-Environmental Protection Agency, kwaye i-27 pesenti yayingenazo iintsalela zezibulali-zinambuzane zibonwa konke konke.
Ngamafutshane: Ezinye iintsalela zilungile, ayizizo zonke iikhemikhali ekutyeni zimbi, kwaye akufuneki uphakuzele ukuba uyalibala ukuhlamba iziqhamo kunye nemifuno embalwa. Ama-apile, umzekelo, aqatywe nge-wax yebakala lokutya ukuze athathe indawo ye-wax yendalo ehlambayo ngexesha lenkqubo yokuhlamba emva kokuvuna. Ukulandelela izixa zemichiza yokutshabalalisa izinambuzane ngokubanzi azinampembelelo ibalulekileyo kwimpilo yakho, kodwa ukuba unenkxalabo malunga nokuvezwa okunokubakho kwizitshabalalisi okanye ezinye iikhemikhali ekutyeni okutyayo, enye indlela ekhuselekileyo onokuthi uyithathe kukuhlamba imveliso yakho phambi kokuyitya.
Ezinye iintlobo ziyakwazi ukuvelisa amasuntswana anenkani kunezinye, kwaye ukunceda ukwahlula eyona mveliso imdaka kwezingangcoli kangako, i-nonprofit Environmental Food Safety Working Group ipapashe uluhlu lokutya okunokuthi kuqulathe izibulali-zinambuzane. Uluhlu, olubizwa ngokuba yi "Dirty Dozen," liphepha lokukopela apho iziqhamo kunye nemifuno kufuneka ihlanjwe rhoqo.
Iqela lihlalutye iisampulu ze-47,510 zeentlobo ze-46 zeziqhamo kunye nemifuno ehlolwe yi-US Food and Drug Administration kunye neSebe lezoLimo lase-US.
Uphando lwamva nje lombutho lufumanise ukuba amaqunube anesona sixa siphezulu sentsalela yezibulali zinambuzane. Kolu hlolisiso lubanzi, iqunube elidumileyo linemichiza emininzi kunaso nasiphi na esinye isiqhamo okanye imifuno.
Apha ngezantsi uyakufumana ukutya okuli-12 okunokuthi kuqulathe izibulali-zinambuzane kunye nokutya okuli-15 okunokona kungcoliseka.
I-Dirty Dozen luphawu oluhle lokukhumbuza abathengi ukuba zeziphi iziqhamo kunye nemifuno ekufuneka ihlanjwe ngocoselelo. Kwanokuhlamba ngokukhawuleza ngamanzi okanye isitshizi sokucoca kunokunceda.
Unako kwakhona ukuphepha imingcipheko emininzi enokubakho ngokuthenga iziqhamo eziqinisekisiweyo eziphilayo kunye nemifuno (ekhuliswe ngaphandle kokusetyenziswa kwezibulali-zinambuzane zezolimo). Ukwazi ukuba kukuphi ukutya okunokuthi kuqulathe izibulali-zinambuzane kunokukunceda wenze isigqibo sokuba uza kuchitha phi imali eyongezelelweyo kwimveliso yendalo. Njengoko ndifundile xa ndihlalutya amaxabiso okutya kwe-organic kunye ne-non-organic, azikho phezulu njengoko unokucinga.
Iimveliso ezineengubo ezikhuselayo zendalo azinakwenzeka ukuba ziqulathe izibulali-zinambuzane ezinokuba yingozi.
Isampulu ecocekileyo ye-15 inelona nqanaba lisezantsi lokungcoliseka kwezitshabalalisi kuzo zonke iisampulu ezivavanyiweyo, kodwa oko akuthethi ukuba azinasulelo ngokupheleleyo kwisibulali-zinambuzane. Kakade ke, oko akuthethi ukuba iziqhamo nemifuno oza nayo ekhaya azinasulelo yintsholongwane. Ngokwezibalo, kukhuselekile ukutya ukutya okungahlanjwanga kwi-Clean 15 kune-Dirty Dozen, kodwa kusengumgaqo olungileyo wokuhlamba zonke iziqhamo kunye nemifuno ngaphambi kokutya.
Indlela yokusebenza ye-EWG ibandakanya imilinganiselo emithandathu yokungcoliseka kwezitshabalalisi. Uhlalutyo lujolise ekubeni zeziphi iziqhamo kunye nemifuno enokuthi iqulethe i-pesticides enye okanye ngaphezulu, kodwa ayilinganisi inqanaba laso nasiphi na isibulali-zinambuzane kwimveliso ethile. Unokufunda ngakumbi malunga nesifundo se-EWG sikaDirty Dozen apha.
Kwiisampulu zovavanyo ezihlalutyiweyo, i-EWG yafumanisa ukuba iipesenti ezingama-95 zeesampulu kudidi lweziqhamo kunye nemifuno “eDirty Dozen” ziqatywe ngezibulali ntsholongwane ezinokuba yingozi. Kwelinye icala, phantse iipesenti ezingama-65 zeesampulu kwiindidi ezilishumi elinesihlanu ezicocekileyo zeziqhamo kunye nemifuno azinazo izibulali-ntsholongwane ezibonwayo.
IQela eliSebenzayo lokusiNgqongileyo lifumene izibulali-zinambuzane ezininzi xa lihlalutya iisampulu zovavanyo kwaye lafumanisa ukuba ezine kwezintlanu zezona zixhaphakileyo izibulali-zinambuzane ezinokuba yingozi: i-fludioxonil, i-pyraclostrobin, i-boscalid kunye ne-pyrimethanil.
