Glyphosate and Wheat Myths

A continuation of my previous wheat myths video. Leave the wheat alone. Bread is not killing you.

To date, every regulatory agency that has evaluated glyphosate has concluded that it is safe if used according to label specifications and does not increase cancer risk, particularly if glyphosate residue is found on food, including produce.

The global consensus is concisely expressed by Health Canada, the oversight agency that most recently issued a re-review of the controversial pesticide: “No pesticide regulatory authority in the world currently considers glyphosate to be a cancer risk to humans at the levels at which humans are currently exposed,” Health Canada wrote in January 2019.

In addition to the many assessments and evaluations, a large and long-term study known as the Agricultural Health Study has monitored the incidence rate of multiple cancers in 54,251 pesticide applicators, including 44,932 who had handled glyphosate since 1993. The study found no association between glyphosate and any solid tumors or lymphoid malignancies overall. The data is ambiguous in workers exposed at very high levels.

Lots more info and resources in my “glyphosate” highlight and more resources on pesticides in general in my “pesticide” highlight on IG.

Wouldn't any amount be unhealthy especially if you eat say oats everyday for years... do you work for the wheat industry?

So are you saying it’s safe and non-toxic? Just for clarification.
