Glyphosate's Impact

Glyphosate, originally used as a herbicide, became a staple in agriculture with the introduction of GMO seeds designed to withstand it. This system has led to significant profitability for companies like Monsanto and Bayer. However, the concerning practice of using glyphosate as a desiccant increases dietary exposure, with estimates suggesting that over 80% of glyphosate in our diets comes from this method of crop processing.
