To remove pesticides from the vegetables and fruit you need to wash them properly or you can soak them for 15-20 mins in water then wash it. Boil vegetables before cooking. Good source of fibre are: apple, oranges, banana, raspberries, guava, dark coloured vegetables (leafy vegetables) Team Nutrihealth.
