This chapter discusses the widespread presence of glyphosate, a water-soluble organophosphate chemical, in air and rainwater samples, highlighting its potential health impacts and environmental contamination. It explores the historical background of glyphosate, its connection to chemical warfare, and its shift from a pipe cleaner to a weed killer. The chapter also discusses the correlation between glyphosate exposure and mortality rates, as well as its toxicity in human cells and its impact on gut health and the gut microbiome.
On this week’s podcast, Paul has the pleasure of speaking to triple board certified doctor, Zach Bush, who is the founder of Farmers Footprint nonprofit. They deep dive into how to protect ourselves from glyphosate, how to truly connect with nature, and what the path forward may look like for humanity.
