Introduction
This may shock you, but a lot of foods out there are high in a certain toxin and that is called glyphosate. It is a herbicide that is very prevalent here in North America. Some of the even so-called health foods could be high in glyphosate. Here is a list of seven toxic foods that may be contaminated with glyphosate. Number seven on the list might make a lot of you unhappy but it may have that glyphosate and you wouldn't have expected it.
#1 Oats
Number one on my list is oats. Your morning oatmeal, granola bars, breakfast cereals, and even children’s cereals could contain this toxin. If they are non-organic oats, which is common especially here in North America, they could be high in glyphosate. Glyphosate is a big problem because it causes gut health issues, a lot of gas, and bloating. It destroys those tight junctions and opens up those tight junctions in the gut wall. This can lead to leaky gut syndrome which we know is correlated to autoimmune disorders such as thyroid disorders.
#2 Wheat
The second food on my list is wheat. Now why does wheat cause so many difficulties and gluten sensitivities for people? Well, is it the gluten or the glyphosate issue because it is toxic to our gut? Wheat in North America is very different from wheat in other parts of the world. Here we've got a lot of that glyphosate which is very destructive to our gut wall lining.
#3 Corn
Number three, another toxic food, is corn. So whether it's GMO or not organic it's going to have that glyphosate. It is just the nature of how modern agriculture is making and growing corn. It has this common toxin, that glyphosate.
#4 Orange Juice
Orange juice is number four on the list. So they went and tested different orange juices off of the store shelf and sure enough they were all contaminated with glyphosate.
#5 Crackers
Number five on my list is crackers. If you think about it, a lot of crackers are made with wheat. If they're so-called gluten-free they could be made with corn or they may be made with oats as well. So again a common place to find glyphosate toxicity. Always try to go organic with your crackers too so you're not getting that glyphosate.
#6 Cookies
Number six on my list are store-bought cookies. They have tested these and they are high in glyphosate. So it is something that again you have to think about if you're going to eat cookies or give cookies to your children. It might be better to make them yourself and from organic ingredients. This way you know exactly what's going into them.
#7 Wine
Number seven on my list, you never would have guessed it, but wine can also have glyphosate. It is something again maybe you can go with an organic wine and make it yourself if you have your own grapes. I know for most people that's just not going to happen but I just wanted you to know about these seven toxic foods that are high in that glyphosate.
If you have leaky gut issues, you've got gut health issues, a lot of gas, and bloating these are the foods to avoid. For tips on how to improve your gut health, please check out my video 7 Causes & Tips for Leaky Gut. I'll see you there!
