– Whole Foods 365 Organic Golden Round Crackers: 119.12 ppb
– Back to Nature Crispy Cheddar Crackers: 372.22 ppb


As you can see, all these values are well-above 0.1 ppb of glyphosate. You may even have several of these snacks inside your pantry right now. However, don’t assume that other brands are necessarily “clean”. In general, it is to be expected that non-organic products contain traces of pesticides/herbicides.

Because of the demand for low-cost food, many corners have been cut in terms of food production – often in the name of safety. Instead of purchasing these snacks, opt for organic fruits and vegetables instead.

Parts per billion I suspect that just about any processed foods can be found to have something in enough parts to be unhealthy for humans, but parts per billions is a stretch to that determination. It's like I tell people its product sabotage to even release such information when overall it has no discernible effect on human physiology. One has to consider the source of the information. Remember when peanut butter, eggs, pork lard and a host of other foods were deemed to be unhealthy to consume.

Scientists beg to differ..

Abstract follows link. Worth reading the entire report! Then think about all the neurological disorders we witness on a daily basis in the children and young adults in society. You know, the kids raised on processed foods listed previously in the thread.

Toxic Effects of Glyphosate on the Nervous System: A Systematic Review

Glyphosate, a non-selective systemic biocide with broad-spectrum activity, is the most widely used herbicide in the world. It can persist in the environment for days or months, and its intensive and large-scale use can constitute a major environmental and health problem. In this systematic review, we investigate the current state of our knowledge related to the effects of this pesticide on the nervous system of various animal species and humans. The information provided indicates that exposure to glyphosate or its commercial formulations induces several neurotoxic effects. It has been shown that exposure to this pesticide during the early stages of life can seriously affect normal cell development by deregulating some of the signaling pathways involved in this process, leading to alterations in differentiation, neuronal growth, and myelination. Glyphosate also seems to exert a significant toxic effect on neurotransmission and to induce oxidative stress, neuroinflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction, processes that lead to neuronal death due to autophagy, necrosis, or apoptosis, as well as the appearance of behavioral and motor disorders. The doses of glyphosate that produce these neurotoxic effects vary widely but are lower than the limits set by regulatory agencies. Although there are important discrepancies between the analyzed findings, it is unequivocal that exposure to glyphosate produces important alterations in the structure and function of the nervous system of humans, rodents, fish, and invertebrates.

Wow, comparing natural foods to processed garbage, talk about a stretch!

Where I am supposed to be.
Funny, I just watched a video about this yesterday. This youtube family has been posting videos of organic living and homesteading for 7 years, not sure how long they've been at it. He posted this video about his wife testing very high for glyphosates. Then he got tested and his levels are also high! They are devastated, and we should be really concerned. I suspect it's added to the feed they have to use? Animals eat it, you eat them, you use their manure to fertilizer your gardens, and the cycle repeats? Sad.

And where did I compare anything to natural foods Show me that. Because most if not all mass-produced natural foods have some type of Herbicides or insecticide's used on them as well. Unless you grow it yourself and don't use any man made chemicals on the plants or ground its grown in is going to have some level of something in it.

I do eat Ritz some. I like the TJ variety better because it does not contain soy. I am not near a TJ often bunt will buy a few boxes next time I am.
I saw a disturbing report on how unhealthy lunchables are.
