An organic diet reduced levels of glyphosate to baseline within three days.

This study science direct demonstrates that diet is a primary source of glyphosate exposure and that shifting to an organic diet is an effective way to reduce body burden of glyphosate. 

Replacing conventional with organic food, have consistently demonstrated reduced pesticide exposure and improved health outcomes, according to a study in including a lower risk of cancer and diabetes, highlighting the benefits of choosing organic products.

Glyphosate, introduced in 1974, is a widely used herbicide with applications ranging from pre-emergent use in conventional crops to over-the-top use in genetically modified glyphosate-resistant crops. It is also employed as a desiccant and weed control agent. Recent research indicates a substantial increase in human exposure to glyphosate, with levels in urine rising more than five-fold from the mid-1970s to 2014. Glyphosate has been classified as a probable human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and implicated in kidney toxicity and fatty liver disease. Animal studies suggest endocrine-disrupting effects, teratogenicity, and alterations to the gut microbiome. Glyphosate exposure has been linked to oxidative stress, with reported effects on mitochondrial energy transduction. The main metabolite of glyphosate, AMPA, has also shown potential toxicity in various organisms. Dietary interventions, replacing conventional with organic food, have consistently demonstrated reduced pesticide exposure and improved health outcomes, including a lower risk of cancer and diabetes, highlighting the benefits of choosing organic products.
