Eating an organic diet can limit further exposure, however. A study
supported by the Environmental Protection Agency and published in 2005
measured pesticide levels in the urine of 23 children in Washington
State before and after a switch to an organic diet. Researchers found
that after just five consecutive days on the new diet, specific markers
for commonly used pesticides decreased to undetectable levels, and
remained that way until conventional diets were reintroduced. The
study's conclusion: "An organic diet provides a dramatic and
immediate protective effect" against such pesticide exposure.

Yes, but what's wrong with breeding humans that are resistant to
organophosphate pesticides? Keep upping the dosage and they should
become resistant to nerve gas as well.
