How to Detox Roundup / Glyphosate From Your Body

Glyphosate is a toxic pesticide that goes beyond harmful. It has the ability to alter cellular structures, take the place of glycine (an amino acid), and inflict lasting damage on various organs and body systems. My own Biotoxin burden test showed high levels of this toxin in my body. Along with mould and various metals, this has been a focal point in my own detox journey.

Glyphosate Is Everywhere

Interestingly, a sign at Perth Foreshore in Nedlands made me realise why our parks look so lush all summer long. It turns out, the widespread use of Glyphosate might be a factor. What is more astonishing is that I found 21 products containing Roundup at a local Bunnings store. It seems we are surrounded by it, from our backyards to our public parks and woodlands.

Glyphosates are contaminating our rivers, lakes, and groundwater, and they are destroying healthy bacteria in the soil. Recent studies indicate that glyphosates can be found in 60-100% of rainwater samples. This pervasive presence is alarming and underscores the need for awareness and action.

The famous Kings Park in Perth is no different, they emailed me the following: “We do spray glyphosate on the mulched tree zones in lawn areas and in the garden beds as required. However, it has been confirmed that there is no on-going or planned use of it in the bushland”.

What Glyphosate Does to Your Body

A Strong Link to Cancer

A review of observational studies found that glyphosate exposure increased the risk of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma by up to 41%. Risk is greater with higher and longer-term exposures.

In Australia, over 800 cancer patients have joined a class-action lawsuit. Kelvin McNickle, who started working in his family’s vegetation management business in Queensland during his mid-teens, routinely used Roundup as part of his job. Despite wearing protective gear, he often ended his workdays soaked in the herbicide. After two decades of such exposure, at the age of 35, McNickle was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma — a type of cancer that affects the lymphatic system. He now serves as the lead plaintiff in the lawsuit against Monsanto, the company that markets glyphosate.

The legal action includes more than 800 Australians who claim that their cancer is linked to exposure to Roundup from July 1976 to July 2022. Research involving laboratory tests and animal studies also points to potential connections between glyphosate and various other cancers.

A Strong Link to Collagen Damage

Have you noticed how common hip, knee, and shoulder replacements have become? Research suggests that glyphosate can damage collagen, leading to issues in joints and ligaments. These can deform and lose their cushioning. Therefore, removing glyphosate is crucial for restoring and maintaining the body’s strength and structural integrity.

How to Detox Glyphosate From Your Body

• Eliminate toxins from the body: Carbon Technology stands out as a premier method for initially binding and removing glyphosate, subsequently aiding in the repair of damaged collagen and reducing inflammation. A top product featuring this technology is HM-ET Binder, which targets both heavy metals and environmental toxins. It’s particularly effective as a primary binder for herbicides and pesticides. Known also as the “fertility binder,” HM-ET Binder has been linked to improved fertility outcomes, with couples experiencing success in conceiving after using the product. Personally, I am currently using HM-ET Binder at half the recommended dose and plan to continue this regimen for at least another six months.
• Steer clear of GMO crops (Genetically Modified Organisms) and wheat: it’s important to note that glyphosate is frequently applied to GMO crops such as corn and soybeans, which are engineered to resist this chemical. Additionally, it is often used on non-GMO crops like barley and wheat to accelerate drying, allowing for earlier harvesting. A scientific review has pointed to glyphosate as a potential factor contributing to the increasing global prevalence of wheat intolerance.
• Drink distilled water: Herbicides, including glyphosate, spread through rainwater runoff. They have been detected in groundwater sources used for public and agricultural water supplies, as well as in bottled water and water tanks.
• Consider opting for organic foods over conventionally grown ones: Organic foods are produced without the use of synthetic herbicides like glyphosate. In a study comparing people who consumed mostly organic diets to those who followed conventional diets, researchers found that the organic diet group had approximately 72% less glyphosate in their urine. This indicates significantly lower glyphosate exposure and less pollution in their bodies.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you detox glyphosate from your body?

Start by eliminating it with a binder: Carbon Technology stands out for initially binding and removing glyphosate, and HM-ET Binder is a top product featuring it, targeting both heavy metals and environmental toxins. Then reduce new exposure: steer clear of GMO crops and wheat, drink distilled water, and choose organic foods over conventionally grown ones.

Where is glyphosate found?

Glyphosate is everywhere, from backyards to public parks and woodlands. I found 21 products containing Roundup at a local Bunnings store, and Kings Park in Perth sprays it on mulched tree zones and garden beds. It contaminates rivers, lakes and groundwater, and recent studies indicate it can be found in 60–100% of rainwater samples.

Is glyphosate linked to cancer?

A review of observational studies found that glyphosate exposure increased the risk of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma by up to 41%, with greater risk at higher and longer-term exposures. In Australia, more than 800 people have joined a class-action lawsuit against Monsanto, claiming their cancer is linked to Roundup exposure between July 1976 and July 2022.

Which foods contain glyphosate?

Glyphosate is frequently applied to GMO crops such as corn and soybeans, which are engineered to resist it. It is also often used on non-GMO crops like barley and wheat to accelerate drying before harvest. In one study, people eating mostly organic diets had approximately 72% less glyphosate in their urine than people on conventional diets.

Can glyphosate affect your joints?

Research suggests that glyphosate can damage collagen, leading to issues in joints and ligaments, which can deform and lose their cushioning. Have you noticed how common hip, knee and shoulder replacements have become? Removing glyphosate is crucial for restoring and maintaining the body’s strength and structural integrity.
