What Pesticides do to us

Pesticides like Glyphosate can create havoc with our health.

Here’s how: They can-

  • Damage healthy gut bacteria
  • Change normal foods to cause allergies
  • Cause depletion of tryptophan and lead to serotonin deficiency (linked to obesity, depression, and sleep problems)
  • Cause depletion of the amino acid tyrosine contributing to thyroid hormone dysfunction.
  • Disrupt motility of the gut creating symptoms of IBS.
  • Disrupt enzymes in the liver necessary to help the body detoxify.
  • Lead to problems with the liver activating vitamin D
  • Contribute to vitamin A toxicity
  • Disrupt the production of bile acids and contributes to fat malabsorption.
  • Depletes the essential minerals iron, cobalt, zinc, and molybdenum
  • Cause increased inflammatory response

Avoid pesticides. Stay Healthy.
