What is in our Food Supply? Toxic Levels of Glyphosate, Pesticides, and Even Gluten Found in Gluten-Free Products

Food Talk For Health

I had a great conversation with Zen Honeycutt from Moms Across America about their on-going campaign to fix our food supply.

• Moms Across America has long been working to ban glyphosate from being sprayed on our food and animal feed crops, especially as a drying agent on grain crops. Studies have shown a very close correlation between the increase of Celiac disease and the increase of glyphosate on crops. Unfortunately, we have discovered that the foods people are eating to avoid gluten often have glyphosate in them—the very same chemical that likely caused their condition in the first place.
• Moms Across America, a national educational nonprofit dedicated to empowering mothers and others to create healthy families and communities, commissioned testing for glyphosate/AMPA, 236 pesticides, gluten, and mineral content in 46 samples of organic and non-organic gluten-free food products including bread, pasta, crackers, snacks, flour, dessert mixes, and chips.
• You may be surprised at their findings. Learn more at www.momsacrossamerica.org
