It's a marketing dream: They sell the poison and they

Did you actually read the article ? And a couple more related
articles ?
The wheat is not GMO , nor are they using the glyphosate for weed
control .
They're using it to kill the wheat in a manner that increases the yield
while making it all ripen within a narrower window - which also maximizes
yield . The problem is that the not-quite-ripe wheat berries absorb
some of
that glyphosate as they ripen .
I've been criticized here and other places for my stand that
glyphosate is
implicated in digestive and auto-immune disorders in people , livestock ,
and even in the bees that pollinate treated plants . Why do you think
there's such a market nowdays for "gut bacteria" AKA probiotics ? It's
because glyphosate is also an antibiotic that kills off the natural
bacteria
we should have .
That **** ain't good for you .

Hi,
Is there unnatural baacteria when you say natural bacteria?
Gut disease is partly genetic, partly diet and life style.
Gluten in wheat is bad. Sugar is bad, heavy meat eating is bad.
When I hear some one boasting (s)he is steak and potato person,
I hear it as I am stupid.



I had heard that the human body was made up more of bacteria then human
cells:
