🍷 Opinion: Glyphosate in American Wines – A Hard Truth
Glyphosate, the toxic herbicide in Roundup, contaminates over 90% of U.S. wines—even some labeled organic. It’s less common but still present in Chilean, Argentinian, and European wines, depending on farming methods. Only wines from regenerative, biodynamic, or lab-tested sources can be trusted.

🛢️🥗 “Canola” Oil Is The Acronym For Rapeseed Oil
Canola oil, made from rapeseed, was rebranded in Canada to distance it from its toxic origins. High in omega-6, it contributes to inflammation when not balanced with omega-3s. A healthy fat intake includes a mix of omega-3, omega-6, saturated, and monounsaturated fats. To lower inflammation and disease risk, reduce omega-6 oils (like canola, soybean) and increase omega-3s from fish, flax, chia, walnuts, and grass-fed meats.
