No one is suggesting that the holy trinity of high starch, vegan and no oil/low fat is somehow wrong, so I'm not sure why the vitriol on this forum about this topic. Some people just can't metabolize flour, sugar or grass grains very well. ITS GOING TO BE OK THAT THEY CAN'T. IT REALLY IS. ITS OK IF YOU CAN.
Fingers crossed for GMO foods.Glyphosate has been detected in the blood and urine of agricultural workers, indicating absorption. Soil microbes degrade glyphosate to aminomethylphosphoric acid (AMPA). Blood AMPA detection after poisonings suggests intestinal microbial metabolism in humans. Glyphosate and glyphosate formulations induced DNA and chromosomal damage in mammals, and in human and animal cells in vitro. One study reported increases in blood markers of chromosomal damage (micronuclei) in residents of several communities after spraying of glyphosate formulations. Bacterial mutagenesis tests were negative. Glyphosate, glyphosate formulations, and AMPA induced oxidative stress in rodents and in vitro. The Working Group classified glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic to humans” (Group 2A).
