“Intolerable Levels” Of Monsanto’s Glyphosate Found In Human Breast Milk
While debate has broken out regarding the World Health Organization's
recent declaration that glyphosate, the main ingredient in Monsanto’s
best-selling herbicide Roundup, is “probably carcinogenic”, another
study reveals concerning affirmation as to why the WHO’s finding needs
to be taken more seriously.
When the Green Party tested 16 women
from different regions all over Germany, it found traces of the
chemical glyphosate appearing in breast milk at 'intolerable levels’,
more than enough to harm a developing baby and its mother.
Glyphosate in breast milk were found to be between 0.210 and 0.432
nanograms per millilitre (PPB). Drinking water is allowed to have no
more than 0.100 nanograms of glyphosate.
