Glyphosate and Human Health

More research needs to be conducted to make direct conclusions regarding the correlation between cancerous outcomes and produce consumption containing glyphosate. A ‘safe’ limit for glyphosate on food consumed by humans considered by the EPA is “0.01 to 400 parts per million (ppm) and The Environmental Working Group (EWG) considers “160 parts per million the safe limit for human consumption” (alergyamulet.com). This is a lower range in comparison to the EPA standards. Glyphosate has been found in various crops including corn, soybean, oil seeds, grains and some fruits (fda.gov).
