Schematic of glyphosate interactions in soil Foliar application of glyphosate Systemic movement throughout the plant throughout the plant Chelation of micronutrients Intensifies stress Accumulation of glyphosate in meristematic tissues (shoot, reproductive, and roots) reproductive, and roots) Translocation of glyphosate from Translocation of glyphosate from shoot to root and release into the rhizosphere Residual soil and residue effects Glyphosate toxicity to: N-fixing microbes Bacterial shikimate pathway Mycorrhizae Biological control organisms Earthworms PGPR organisms Toxicity to root tips by glyphosate or its toxic metabolites (e.g. AMPA) toxic metabolites (e.g. AMPA) Compromise of plant Compromise of plant defense mechanisms defense mechanisms Promotion of soil-borne organisms: Reduced availability or uptake of essential nutrients (Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, N, Zn) nutrients (Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, N, Zn)

Weston A Price The diets of all healthy traditional peoples he studied included no refined or denatured foods some sort of animal protein and fat Some animal products eaten raw daily High food enzyme content Seeds grains nuts were soaked sprouted fermented or naturally leavened Total fat content varied from 30-80% of calories eaten only 4% of that from polyunsaturated sources Equal amounts omega 3 and 6 Provision for the health of future generations by providing special nutrient rich food for parents to be.. Sacred food Vitamin A targeted food for these people 4 times the calcium and 10 times the fat soluble vitamins……………. from animal fats!
