if u eat organic, u will be better off...conventional fruits and veggies are sprayed with chemicals and often gm'd which means that they do not have as many vitamins and minerals...if any at all....

conventional fruit/veggies may last longer because of the chemicals to prolong shelf life...dead food...

i was a raw and living foodist for 6 months...best time of my life...i am planning on returning to it very soon...
