Glyphosate is otherwise known as the main ingredient in Round-up in the USA. We spray it on our weeds and US big business agricultural companies - such as Monsanto - spray this chemical on our food. It is most often used on our wheat products however it is now in our soil and fluidity has spread through other crops as well. 17 other countries have banned this chemical use. United States companies continuously deny negative healthcare outcomes but have recently been forced by rising controversy to address the issue in the US court system.

There is a Glyphosate Residue Free Certification for Food Brands: - https://detoxproject.org/certification/glyphosate-residue-free/ You can also test certain foods and your water for glyphosate - https://detoxproject.org/testing/glyphosate-test-home-food/ I highly encourage my patients to steer clear of glyphosate contamination the best that they can, especially if they are experiencing any signs of a weak immune system. Toxic substances support inflammation in the body and tax our natural detoxification pathways.
