Episode 127: Weed Killer in Your Breakfast Bowl? - The Hidden Sources and Dangers of Glyphosate (Roundup)

Jul 12, 2024
 

 

You might be eating weed killer for breakfast. If you or your kids eat one of these popular cereals for breakfast, you’re ingesting harmful amounts of glyphosate, which is also known as the popular weed killer, Roundup.  Most people think that glyphosate is safe, because our government says so. But there’s $10 billion dollars worth of lawsuit payouts that say otherwise. 


On today’s episode, we’re diving into glyphosate, why it’s so controversial, the hidden sources and danger, plus… I’m going to uncover the top 3 favorite household food brands and fast food restaurants with the highest levels of glyphosate, along with the recent uproar over one of the most popular health foods and why eating healthy, organic, or gluten free isn’t always the best solution.

If you are interested in learning more about the controversy behind glyphosate, along with the shocking statistics, plus how you can protect your midlife health, and decrease the cancer risk for your family, your kids, grandkids, and even your fur babies, then keep listening because this episode is for you.  


Together, we will unpack:

  • What exactly is glyphosate?
  • How is glyphosate federally regulated and is it safe?
  • If glyphosate is purported as "safe", why are there so many lawsuits against the makers of Round-Up?
  • How can we protect ourselves from the effects of glyphosate?
  • How can you help in the fight against the use of glyphosates?
