An Alarming New Study Shows That Glyphosate Has Infiltrated Breakfast Cereal, Soy Milk And More

And here are a few brands to avoid, all of which tested at between 100 and 500 ppb, include Thomas’ Whole Wheat bagels, Rudio Multibagels, Pepperidge Farm Whole Grain bread, and Dave’s Killer Whole Wheat Bread, Silk Soy Creamer non-GMO, and Cream of Wheat Hot Cereal whole grain.

You might do well to start by throwing out any Quaker Instant Oatmeal you have laying around. A recent study discovered that the company’s Strawberries and Cream breakfast cereal contained over 1,300 parts per billion of glyphosate weed killer, the chemical widely used as an herbicide on genetically-modified crops. The study was conducted at Microbe Inotech Laboratories in St. Louis, using the latest methodology, an “enzyme linked immuno-absorbent assay.

But here are some alarming facts about the Microbe Inotech study: for one thing, at over 1300 ppb, the level of glyphosate found in the oatmeal is off the charts. Of the other items that tested positive for the chemical the highest were in the 400-500 ppb range, and certainly well above the 75 ppb threshold of detection.

Secondly, and what should really have us all screaming and heading toward the Monsanto headquarters with torches and pitchforks–next stop, Congress–is the fact that oats aren’t even a GMO crop. So, whereas one might expect to find some traces of glyphosate in foods containing corn or soy or in products containing cotton, non-GMO crops like oats are an unlikely source.
