Glyphosate isn't being removed from the market yet, possibly because changing to other products or methods will take time (and we need to keep growing food during that time), but IT, and other toxic chemicals, NEED to be removed from American farming -- and America soils, to whatever extent we can do that -- ASAP.

. . . In general, pesticide exposure through food, water and air is thought to be limited, with safety thresholds established by regulatory agencies like the EPA and WHO to protect public health.

However, research suggests that long-term, daily exposure could contribute to serious health issues.

While effects vary depending on the type of pesticide, they have been associated with a higher risk of Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and several types of cancer, as well as reproductive, developmental and metabolic disorders.

Just look at agricultural workers, who are regularly exposed to high levels of pesticides and have been found to have higher rates of chronic illness, including lung cancer.

Because non-organic fruits, vegetables and whole grains can carry more pesticide residue than foods like dairy, meat and heavily processed fare — staples of the average American diet — researchers believe this could help explain the unexpected link.

The findings may also shed light on the changing face of lung cancer.
