]]>Last year, the USDA had announced that they were going to test food for glyphosate and the AMPA metabolite, an acid that is created as glyphosate breaks down, starting in April 2017. In March 2017, they abandoned this plan. The USDA had been coordinating with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to test these samples, even though the EPA had received pressure from Monsanto to declare that glyphosate is not a carcinogen.
Last year, the FDA began testing glyphosate on food products. They found high levels in many samples of honey, and even in infant oat cereals. What if you, as a consumer, believed that you were buying a product with zero risk of it containing a potentially carcinogenic chemical, but then find out that it contained toxin levels much higher than the MRL? When there is no transparency, mankind is in danger.
Without comprehensive testing of all pesticides and toxins present on food, you, the consumer, will not be able to make an informed decision about the food that you buy for yourself and your family. Demand that your food be produced sustainably, with organic, natural products, like neem! When you choose organic, there is no concern over whether or not your food is safe to eat!
