Choosing Organic to Reduce Glyphosate Exposure

Ada Dettenkofer-Leahy, Senior Buyer at Jo Anne's Place and wife of Peter Leafy from Merrylynd Organics, is joining us today to share her passion for health and the importance of choosing organic products to reduce our exposure to glyphosate.  Glyphosate is an inexpensive, broad spectrum herbicide used to increase crops yields and is found in Canada's top selling weed killer, round up. Glyphosate has been under scrutiny for its carcinogenic properties as well as its impact on gut health, infertility, birth defects, neurotoxin, and DNA damage. In this episode Ada shares about common foods that contain glyphosate, the long term effects of glyphosate accumulating in the body, and how to reduce your exposure to glyphosate.
