Nasty stuff. Never heard of the correlation to autism, but not surprised.
GREAT research by your daughter.
Let's be blunt: Organically grown food (i.e., no herbicides, hormones, or antibiotics involved) is just simply better. Tastes better, too.
The sad reality though is that organically grown food is a luxury. Factory and "big farm" grown food is necessary to feed the 7+ billion people who live on this rock.
IOW, the choice is between food with issues (including some nasty side effects) and millions starving to death. I'll take door 1, thanks.
PS I used to think that I was allergic to beef. Did not eat a hamburger or steak for over 15 years because every time I did, my knees hurt and may face exploded with acne. Turns out beef wasn't the problem -- it was the hormones in commercial beef. I now love a good steak, but the ones I can eat without problems are not cheap.
Daughter’s work is the first time I even heard the word ‘glysophate.” Lil has made herself a pretty good dietician. Her sister got her to research some things and lil came up with dietary changes for her. Donna doesn’t have allergic reactions to seemingly everything anymore and has lost a third of her weight- looks 25 years old now instead of the 43 she is. Lil just said cut out grains and several named vegetables and she banned soy unless it comes from Japan, something about fermenting it. There were other things, too. Donna has tried to set her mother straight, but wife won’t change her habits.
If somebody can figure out how to do Loma Preta, the man-made topsoil that is up to 6 feet deep in some areas of the Amazon forest, a lot of the artificial crap can be eliminated.
