Science Has Found Another Reason For You To Eat Organic

Your grocery bill is about to go up. Findings from a 23-year study at the University of California, San Diego, have shown that Californians may have high levels of glyphosate, the active chemical in the herbicide Roundup. In the 1990s, only 12 of the 100 people researchers followed had detectable levels of the weed killer, which is sprayed on nonorganic wheat, oats, barley, and soybeans.

He recommends eating organic as much as possible, including packaged foods that contain grains.
