NEW INTERNATIONAL VALIDATED GLYPHOSATE TESTING!!
The Feed The World project launched April 23, 2015, with a World first, unique glyphosate test for the general public. The project with a specific focus on women and children in the U.S. is offering the first-ever validated public LC/MS/MS glyphosate testing for urine, water, and soon breast milk. This could lead to a ban on the sale and use of glyphosate, the world’s number one herbicide.
The World Health Organization (WHO) announcement in March shocked the global biotech (GMO) industry by classifying their most profitable chemical – glyphosate – as a “probable human carcinogen” (1).
Henry Rowlands, Director of Feed The World (2) stated Thursday;
“Glyphosate is the backbone of our current agricultural system that supplies us with toxic food, water, and air. We aim to ban glyphosate by allowing the public to inform themselves about what levels of glyphosate are found in their own and their family’s bodies. Feed The World will also give a platform to profitable, agriculture alternatives that allow farmers, businesses, and governments to change direction towards a better non-toxic future for our children.”
The validated glyphosate testing method (2) sponsored by Feed The World will allow the general public to find out with certainty what levels of glyphosate are found in their bodies and in their tap water.
Our previous MAA tests and reports completed in 2014 showed that glyphosate is found in American women’s breast milk, urine, and water, but due to the ELISA testing method used in these tests the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and other government regulators were able to ignore the results. Feed The World has commissioned and sponsored a new validated LC/MS/MS testing method which will increase the pressure on the EPA and other regulators to take serious action on glyphosate-based herbicides, and potentially ban glyphosate.
Here is the info from our winter 2014 project: You can still test yourself, the data is just not a part of an MAA project.
If you DO get yourself tested, please post your first name, city, state, and results below in the comment section!
GLYPHOSATE is the active chemical ingredient in Roundup, which is sprayed on the soil of 160 non-organic food crops and on GMO food crops genetically engineered to withstand Roundup. They stopped keeping track in 2009 of the millions of pounds that are being sprayed on our food, parks, schools, and sidewalks. Last year alone the pesticides usage increase by 26%. Glyphosate is the most widely used pesticide in the year, over 5 billion pounds a year are sprayed on soil and crops around the world, 527 million since the introduction of GMOs in the USA alone.
This chart of correlation is of grave concern to Moms. We encourage all Moms who have children with autism, allergies, autoimmune disorders, asthma or IBS to get tested.
We forever appreciate the efforts of Microbe Inotech and will continue to work with them. The current need for validated testing has us currently promoting the FeedtheWorld Project. If you had tests done with Microbe Inotech you can rest assured you got the most accurate testing available to the public at a reasonable price, at the time.
If you need to contact Microbe about an existing order please call or contact them. MAA is not handling calls about glyphosate testing orders.
If you get glyphosate testing done please add an X next to the town or neighboring town on this document.
If Glyphosate does this to bacteria in a lab, what is it doing to the beneficial gut bacteria in our bodies? The bacteria which make up our children's immune systems?
Thank you for your partnership in health and freedom in America!

6. Conclusion
Glyphosate is used on a large variety of crops, but only a limited number of uses
generate residues in the edible parts of the crops. Additionally, the acceptable daily
intake is quite favorable, in line with the toxicological properties of the compound.
The dietary exposure calculations show that under the unrealistic worst case scenario
where all the crops, fish, seafood and animal products would contain residues at the
maximum residue level or at 0.1 mg/kg if no current MRL exists, the consumer would
only ingest 17% of the glyphosate acceptable daily intake.
No impact on human health is thus to be expected for the consumer of food treated
with glyphosate according to good agricultural practices.

Glyphosate is a patented antibiotic and like all antibiotics it kills vitally important beneficial soil bacteria and human gut bacteria. It is also a chelator, meaning it meaning it immobilizes critical micronutrients, rendering them unavailable to the plant. If you’re consistently eating foods from which your body cannot extract critical nutrients and minerals, health issues are sure to follow.
Yes soybeans are one of the Genetically Modified crops.
