It's, again, on 70% of all products.

It's one of the most toxic compounds out there.

It should be banned.

I'm leaving to say there's been billions of dollars of lawsuits against Monsanto that have been successful because of this.

All right, so where do you get exposure?

Well, if you're eating produce that's not organic, if you're eating a lot of grains, it's often sprayed on wheat at harvest to desiccate the wheat, meaning to get all the leaves off so that they can dry out and process the wheat.

It's in processed food for sure.

There's a box of Cheerios.

It's kind of a spook, but it's accurate.

There's more glyphosate in terms of pure quantity in Cheerios than there is some of the vitamins and minerals that they list on the link.

So that's concerning to me.

It's also on lawns and agricultural places.

So I worry about it being used widely and frequently.

We call it Roundup, and they use it everywhere.

So I'd be very careful about any exposure to this.

It damages the gut microbiome, it impairs your detoxification enzymes, it increases inflammation, increases cancer risk, has changed generational effects, epigenetic effects.

I worry about all of that.

What do you do about it?

Do your best to eat organic when you can.

Again, the Environmental Working Group has a great list of the dirty dozen and the clean 15.
