FDA Glyphosate Testing Fraud






FDA Glyphosate Testing Fraud


May 10th, 2018

Via: Modern Farmer:

Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests were quickly filed, and the newest set, this one by the non-profit food industry research group US Right to Know and published this past weekend by the Guardian, turned up some interesting emails from within the FDA showing that their chemists have been busy doing some extra-curricular work testing regular foods brought from home, as opposed to the official samples tested by the FDA, for the presence of glyphosate.

All of the official samples passed the test and were within the legal limits of glyphosate residue. But those off-the-record, unofficial samples, though done with the same equipment and tested by the same chemists, showed glyphosate.

That’s right. The chemists found glyphosate residue on just about everything: crackers, granola, cornmeal, honey, oatmeal, baby food, and even corn. Their surreptitious corn test—one of the four items the FDA is actually testing—found glyphosate significantly over the legal limit set by the EPA. The chemists emailed their bosses to ask what to do. The FDA’s response (which was also captured in the FOIA documents): That corn was not an “official sample� and will thus be ignored.

  1. NH Says:




    Emeritus Professor Don M. Huber at Purdue University is a giant in his field:

    From the conclusion (emphasis added):

    “Glyphosate is a strong, broad-spectrum nutrient chelator that inhibits plant enzymes responsible for disease resistance so that plants succumb from pathogenic attack. This also predisposes RR and non-RR plants to other pathogens. The introduction of such an intense mineral chelator as glyphosate into the food chain through accumulation in feed, forage, and food, and root exudation into ground water, could pose significant health concerns for animals and humans and needs further evaluation. Chelation immobilization of such essential elements as Ca (bone), Fe (blood), Mn, Zn (liver, kidney), Cu, Mg (brain) could directly inhibit vital functions and predispose to disease. The lower mineral nutrient content of feeds and forage from a glyphosate-intense weed management program can generally be compensated for through mineral supplementation.�

    Due to its intense mineral chelation in the soil, glyphosate makes nutrients unavailable to plants so they are unavailable to the animals eating the plants. One of the big MONSTERsanto lies, endlessly repeated by conventional farmers, is that glyphosate degrades within days. Instead, it has been building in the soil for decades.

    In 2012, Huber gave a presentation to the UK Parliament (outline starting on page 47):

    He also is an expert on genetically modified organisms:

    Dr Stephanie Seneff is also worth listening to (GMO/mitochondrial function/glyphosate):

    Some good news? The preceding Cryptogon article on seaweed is a good start—marine plants are an excellent source of micronutrients and can be reasonably purchased in a 50# bag.
