Glyphosate Panel
Glyphosate Panel
Studies have shown that 86% of people tested have detectable levels of glyphosate in their urine, with levels skyrocketing by 3800% over the past two decades. Disturbingly, animals bear an even heavier burden, with dogs found to have levels up to thirty times higher and cats up to sixteen times higher than humans.

Glyphosate’s harmful effects extend beyond its prevalence; it actively disrupts bacterial populations, intensifies pathogens, and diminishes beneficial organisms. Moreover, its endocrine-disrupting activity and cytotoxic nature harm multiple cell types. Research links glyphosate exposure to a myriad of health concerns, such as fatty liver syndrome, infertility, and an increased risk of certain cancers, including non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, leukemias, hemangiosarcoma, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, microbiome dysbiosis, metabolic syndrome, and obesity.
Glyphosate is primarily excreted through urine and feces, which means that by reducing or eliminating dietary exposure, these levels can rapidly decline within days. Urine glyphosate levels reflect short-term exposure(days-week) while hair and fur samples offer a longer-term(week-hair) perspective. Good news is – by combining routinely testing with strategic diet and lifestyle changes, we offer a holistic approach that guarantees a of glyphosate levels to near zero.
