The bad “stuff” includes compounds in water and virtually all food stuffs and well as many plastics and other household products. Cumulative doses of such damaging compounds are hard to measure, which in turn makes it hard or impossible to identify specific culprits because the ill effects usually seem to be due to cumulative doses. Blaming soy or other drugs is like blaming bullets from ghetto gun play for common childhood lead poisoning in urban slums instead of pervasive lead paint and lead in auto gasoline. Fortunately, for the sake of public health, we got rid of lead paint and lead in gas and lead exposure has declined dramatically.

Yes and while I can’t prove it I think it was getting rid of all lead paint.

Similarly if you believe certain pesticides or fertilizers are dangerous then they are still around if used on the majority agriculture so I think it’s getting in the organic so called.

A lab could test an organic apple and see what’s on it/in it if so inclined.

And then an inorganic. Any difference?

I am not convinced the herbicides and pesticides and fertilizer are harmful to us anyway.
