A massive international study just proved what we've suspected for decades, glyphosate causes cancer even at doses the European Union considers "safe."

In today's episode, I'm breaking down the results of the Global Glyphosate Study, led by major institutions including the Ramazzini Institute in Italy, Boston University, and universities across the globe. Over 1,000 rats were tested, with control groups receiving zero glyphosate and three other groups receiving amounts equivalent to what the EU deems safe for human consumption. The results are devastating: all groups exposed to glyphosate developed tumors and cancers, with leukemia being the most prevalent, especially in rats exposed during the prenatal stage.

This isn't some fringe research. This is an international coalition of credible universities providing evidence that glyphosate infiltrates our entire food system and causes cancer. Meanwhile, Bayer and Monsanto continue trying to get immunity laws passed across the United States, claiming farmers can't grow food without glyphosate. But here's the truth: regenerative and organic farming doesn't require synthetic pesticides, it's just that we've destroyed our soil with decades of chemical agriculture.

The solution isn't just individual action (though I'll share practical steps you can take), it's systemic change. We need to call our representatives and demand two things: no liability shields for pesticide companies, and government grants to help farmers transition to regenerative agriculture. This is about more than just our personal health - it's about saving our entire food system.

In today's episode, we're chatting about:

• The shocking results of testing 1,000+ rats with "safe" levels of glyphosate

• Why pesticide companies are fighting for legal immunity across the US

• How glyphosate exposure during pregnancy increases childhood leukemia risk

• Practical steps to reduce glyphosate exposure in your home and diet

• Why we need systemic change, not just individual action, to solve this crisis
