Closed Ban herbicides containing Glyphosate to protect people, food and the environment

Closed on

Glyphosate, an ingredient in herbicides, is sprayed on non-organic crops to eliminate weeds and accelerate the drying process before harvest.

Studies indicate it can induce toxic effects on the nervous system and compromise the gut lining—allowing pathogens (harmful bacteria) and toxins to enter the bloodstream.

This contributes to systemic inflammation which is linked to many diseases we face today.
