The organic industry is buzzing about something the conventional food industry has been trying to keep secret: glyphosate. Whether you've already heard about glyphosate in the news or this is the first time you've encountered it, we know being an informed consumer is one of the best ways to help change our food.
Glyphosate is the primary active ingredient in Roundup, the world's most widely used herbicide.
It has been classified by the World Health Organization as a "probable carcinogen" — aka, a cancer-causing substance.
Glyphosate residues are prevalent in many conventionally grown crops, including grains.
Synthetic herbicide drift can occur from neighboring fields, causing organically grown crops to become contaminated.
All One Degree Organics products are third-party verified glyphosate-free by BioChecked.
We recently surveyed US and Canadian consumers on their glyphosate knowledge and the results were staggering. For the full survey results, click here.
