Glyphosate breakdown molecule “AMPA” found to harm earthworms and degrade the life of soils

June 26, 2019 -

According to a study published in Environmental Sciences Europe, farmers sprayed enough of this toxic chemical throughout 2014 to cover every single acre of the world’s cropland with half a pound of it. One of the main molecules that glyphosate breaks down into, AMPA, has been found to be persistent in soils, where it’s harming earthworms and ruining soil quality.

Researchers studying the effects of AMPA on the earthworm species known as Eisenia Andrei ...

Glyphosate byproduct AMPA found to interfere with photosynthesis, the basis of nearly all life on planet Earth

July 08, 2019 -

As bad as the direct effects of glyphosate are, however, they are not the only dangers associated with this toxic chemical. Studies have confirmed that a glyphosate byproduct known as aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) interferes with multiple plant processes, including photosynthesis, without which most life on Earth could not exist. (Related: Plant cells that enable photosynthesis found to also play a role in plant self defense.)What is AMPA?

Glyphosate and its byproduct AMPA found to heavily contaminate farms, rivers, cities and rural areas across America

June 25, 2019 -

Back in 2014, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) funded a study to assess just how widespread glyphosate and its by-product aminomethylphosphonic (AMPA) were in the environment.

Even though the study’s authors went to great lengths to insist that “glyphosate is no more than slightly toxic to birds, fish, and aquatic invertebrates; and exhibits relatively low oral and dermal acute toxicity to humans,” it nonetheless admitted that both glyphosate and AMPA ...

CWC Labs launches glyphosate contamination rating system for foods and supplements

October 22, 2019 -

Notably, a rating of "A" is consistent with current EU standards on glyphosate, which are the most strict governmental standards in the world. That rating is 100 ppb (parts per billion), which equates to 100 ng/ml in liquid form.

In contrast to the strict EU limits on glyphosate, the U.S. EPA allowable limits are described here. At that link, you will note that "animal feed" has a limit of 400 ppm (400,000 ppb).

Cereals and grains (except for corn) have a limit ...

USDA scrubs plan to test foods for dangerous levels of Monsanto’s glyphosate

April 06, 2017 -

It seemed like the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) was pursuing the same strategy. For a full year, from January 2016 until January of this year, the USDA was coordinating efforts with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to start testing for glyphosate residues in samples of corn syrup starting this coming April. Now, it seems that the USDA has dropped its plan, and is instead going to focus its efforts on testing for 100 ...

Glyphosate testing finds traces of toxic herbicide in Ben & Jerry’s ice cream

August 05, 2017 -

[Editor's note: The concentration of glyphosate found in the ice cream is so low that it may be meaningless. As a lab scientist who is very familiar with the analytical methods for quantitation of glyphosate, I'm skeptical that quant data at this low of a concentration is statistically reliable. It is also possible that 1 ppb of glyphosate could be found in almost all ice cream or dairy products, as contamination is so widespread. More analysis coming soon.  - Mike]

Could magical mushrooms contain the cure for depression?

February 04, 2017 -

As the CDC further notes, depression is associated with an increased risk of death from suicide and other causes; absenteeism and lower workplace productivity, leading to lower income and higher unemployment; and high-risk behaviors like substance abuse and smoking.

Clearly, this is a serious issue which has a detrimental effect on the lives of many.

Fortunately, there is new hope for those afflicted with this devastating condition. Chinese medicine has long ...

Kidney-decimating WEED KILLER glyphosate discovered in CHICKEN and EGGS and traced back to the GMO poultry feed at the CAFOs

September 10, 2025 -

A growing body of research is raising alarms over glyphosate — the active ingredient in Roundup — and its widespread presence throughout the poultry production system. A scientific review in the World’s Poultry Science Journal highlights how this herbicide, commonly used on genetically engineered (GM) feed crops, leaves residues that move from feed to chickens and ultimately to eggs and meat sold in grocery stores.

Glyphosate Found in Eggs, Chicken ...

Sweet with a hint of herbicides: Almost 99% of Canadian honey contains trace levels of glyphosate

March 08, 2020 -

Agri-Food Laboratories and the Alberta Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry performed an analysis on 200 random samples of honey in Canada -- and the results were not promising.

The findings showed that almost 99 percent of the honey samples analyzed were contaminated with glyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto's RoundUp products that has been linked to cancer.

“Two hundred randomly chosen honey samples, which were submitted to our laboratory for another ...

We’ve completed the lab testing: “Groovy Bee” Collagen Peptides (hydrolyzed collagen) now available through the Health Ranger Store

October 17, 2019 -

Because most animals are fed GMO feed that's laced with glyphosate, the cancer-causing herbicide chemical used across modern agriculture, it is a legitimate concern that glyphosate could find its way into animal-derived products such as meats or even collagen peptides.

This concern is further underscored by the fact that glyphosate is:

1) A very small molecule (169 daltons, which is tiny for an herbicide or pesticide), allowing it to easily pass through cell membranes....

Researchers link glyphosate-based weedkillers to liver disease and endocrine disorders in kids

March 06, 2023 -

(Article by Carey Gillam republished from TheNewLede.org)

Children exposed to a weedkiller commonly used in farming, as well as on residential yards and school playgrounds, appear to be at increased risk for liver inflammation and metabolic disorders in young adulthood and more serious diseases later in life, according to a study published Wednesday in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives.

The paper was authored by 12 California scientists and health researchers ...

85% of tampons, feminine hygiene products contaminated with cancer-causing glyphosate

July 27, 2016 -

Tampons made from certain synthetic fibers have been found to harbor harmful, pathogenic bacteria and release amounts of toxic chemicals into the human body that are substantial enough to have killed or injured over a thousand women. The Organic Consumers Association has even reported that a 1975 memo from Proctor and Gamble revealed that their Rely tampons contained cancer-causing agents and that the product altered the natural state of the vagina. The organization also notes ...

GOT ROUNDUP SYNDROME? World’s most widely used herbicide ingredient, glyphosate, likely MAJOR FACTOR of Liver Disease Epidemic sweeping the globe

May 07, 2025 -

Glyphosate, a known carcinogenic ingredient in most weed-killer, is also used as a drying agent for conventional crops before they are harvested and put in the silos. That means nearly every conventional food product contains some bug killer and weed killer chemicals (plus GMOs) that drive chronic inflammation and wreck the cleansing organs to the extent that eventually, they fail and you die.Glyphosate raises the risk of chronic liver disease, and you can’t live without ...

BREAKING: Big Pharma blood pressure drugs found laced with cancer-causing chemical; but FDA says don’t stop taking them

June 18, 2019 -

"A pharmacy warned the Food and Drug Administration that it found a chemical believed to cause cancer in a widely used blood pressure medication, according to a filing from the federal agency," reports CNBC.

The drugs are part of a popular class of prescription medications the FDA has been quietly recalling after finding them to be laced with cancer-causing chemicals. Those drugs reportedly include valsartan, losartan and irbesartan.

Even more astonishingly, this ...

Shocking study reveals EPA ignored scientific proof that Monsanto’s glyphosate may cause CANCER

April 07, 2019 -

On the other hand, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), did review independent studies that link glyphosate to cancer in humans. Both agencies took different approaches when determining glyphosate risk to humans. The EPA relied on research conducted by the agrochemical industry, namely Monsanto, to determine that glyphosate is not carcinogenic. IARC did not solely rely on studies that were engineered to get glyphosate approved. IARC examined independent Canadian, ...
