But when you get to glyphosate,
There's so much that's being obscured about the truth of it and what's happening with it.
Just to the basic point of the two separate types that is traditional glyphosate, the molecule that's pure, and the formulated glyphosate-based herbicides.
These are the ones that are up to 50 times more toxic.
The EPA does not require the registrant testing on these, just on the molecule, on the traditional glyphosate.
So when the EU banned our version of glyphosate, they did it because the formulation was so toxic.
It actually, pure glyphosate has trouble getting into your bloodstream without the surfactants that I mentioned earlier.
But when you formulate it specifically to penetrate the dermis of a plant, it'll do the same thing to your skin.
30% of what's on your skin will enter your bloodstream.
10% of your cardiac output goes into your bone marrow.
And in bone marrow, it disrupts the cell replication cycle.
But here's something that I haven't yet talked about and that I want your listeners to understand, is that many people who avoid products that could have glyphosate in them, residues of glyphosate,
that eat organic diets and all these things.
They'll still show up that they have glyphosate in their urine.
And the reason glyphosate is so talked about and so dangerous is because it's the most widely used herbicide in the history of the world.
It's used everywhere.
Everywhere.
Not just on ag applications.
Consumers buy it at Home Depot.
Glyphosate is a chelator.
