How to use Thieves Fruit & Veggie Soak
This all-natural, plant-based, 100% biodegradable, Planet-friendly product is designed to cleanse your fresh produce of chemical residues, dirt and sprays before you eat it. It’s super effective on your produce, and cost-effective too…and it improves the shelf-life of your produce, so you win both ways!
After soaking in Thieves Fruit & Veggie Soak, I find that lettuce and fresh herbs last 10 to 14 days in my fridge (I air dry them after I’ve soaked them, then pack them between layers of paper towel in an airtight container), and other fruit & veggies last at least 3 weeks in my fridge. Again, I air dry them first.
You never know who’s been handling your fruit and veggies before you bought it…. so the Thieves Fruit & Veggie Soak also gives you the ultimate peace of mind knowing you are eating “clean” food.
- The next best thing to buying organic produce
- Use 5ml* (1 tsp) in 2.5 litres of water
- 95 washes in a bottle (= 35c a wash at wholesale pricing)
- Removes chemical residues, sprays & dirt from both organic & non-organic produce
- Improves the look and taste of your produce

Remember – this is a super concentrate, so you don’t need much! You just need 1 teaspoon in 2.5 litres of water. I just get a salad bowl, fill it with luke warm water, and pop in a teaspoon of the Fruit & Veggie Soak.
Soak your fresh produce in this bowl for 2 minutes, then rinse it off in clean water. By doing this, I have never had any after taste on my produce….it just tastes fresh and clean, and I have the peace of mind knowing it’s been purified.
Special Tip: If you add the Thieves Fruit & Veggie Soak in at the beginning (before you fill the bowl with water), it will froth up. I prefer to add it in at the end. It will still purify, but I won’t have to wade through beautiful froth to retrieve my fruit and veggies. But then again…you might love froth more than me, lol.
The Broccoli Test – simply WOW!!!
You absolutely have to do this!!! I took this photo a week ago, so I would have a fresh photo for this bulletin for you.
I bought a beautiful organic broccoli from the organic farmers’ markets. I soaked half of it in Thieves Fruit & Veggie Soak for 2 minutes, then flipped it over, and soaked the other half in filtered water for 2 minutes. Then I sat it on the bench, and took this pic of it. Check out the difference between the two sides!!!
The left side with the deep, beautiful green colours has been soaked in the Thieves Fruit & Veggie Soak. It really shows you how well this product strips the chemical and other residues off your food.
Why does water soak into the Broccoli after the test?
The Thieves Fruit & Veggie Soak is formulated with four simple natural plant-based ingredients (Decyl Glucoside, Glycerin, Citric Acid and Sodium Citrate), and 3 therapeutic-grade essential oil blends (Thieves, Purification, and DiGize).
SURFACTANTS play a significant role in removing dirt and waxes, and are far superior to just soaking your produce in water or a vinegar and bicarb solution. That’s why you’ll really notice the difference in your food after you’ve soaked it in the Thieves Fruit & Veggie Soak.
You’ll absolutely love it!!! Check out these comments….

Just soak half of the broccoli in Thieves Fruit & Veggie soak for 2 minutes, then flip it over and soak the other half in plain water for 2 minutes, and see the difference. It’s simply wow!
Jeffrey G. writes: Boy, can you taste the difference after using the Thieves Fruit & Veggie Soak!!! The tangy, furry taste you get on your tongue after eating fresh grapes is from the sulphur dioxide preservative. It makes such a difference to the flavour.
Vicki M. writes: I go to the local produce markets every week, and even though my produce is certified organic, I still soak it in the Thieves Fruit and Veggie Soak to purify it before I eat it. That’s partly because I don’t know who’s been handling it before I’ve bought it. What amazes me is the filth in the water after I’ve soaked it – there is so much soil and other residue that sits on organic produce!!!
Sandy V. writes: It’s brilliant with lettuce! I just wash it in Thieves Fruit & Veggie soak, then sun dry for 20 minutes and pop it into a rectangle lunch box. The lettuce lasts a week with no discolouration! I also add Thieves Fruit & Veggie Soak in some water with bunches of carrots. It’s amazing how long they stay fresh! I love to use them as a table decoration.
Jane P. writes: After my toddler has played on the floor with the baby’s toys, I soak them in Thieves Fruit & Veggie Soak. It’s so nice to know they will be clean and chemical free for her to chew on again!
Tanja J. writes: After I’ve soaked all my fruit and veggies in the Thieves Fruit & Veggie Soak, I recycle the water onto my pot plants, and they love it!
