Did You Know? Glyphosate Is Hiding in Common Foods 🍞🌽🥣

You won’t see it on food labels, but glyphosate—a common weedkiller used in farming—can end up in many everyday foods. Known as Roundup, this chemical is linked to health issues like digestive problems, immune interference, and even cancer.

Here are 7 foods where glyphosate often lurks:

Oat Cereals: Non-organic oats (like those in cereals and granola) are commonly sprayed with glyphosate.

Wheat Products: Bread, pasta, crackers, and baked goods can contain glyphosate since most non-organic wheat is sprayed.

Corn & Soy Snacks: Corn chips, soy snacks, and many packaged foods with additives like maltodextrin and lecithin.

Almonds & Nut Butters: Many non-organic almonds and nut butters have pesticide residues.

Hummus & Bean Dips: Chickpeas and other beans are often treated with glyphosate, which can end up in your dips.

Berries: Blueberries, strawberries, and other berries are commonly sprayed to keep weeds away.

Gluten-Free Foods: Even gluten-free foods can have glyphosate, especially those made with oats, chickpeas, and almonds.

How to Reduce Your Exposure:

Buy organic when possible, or look for "glyphosate residue-free" labels.

Consider adding detox options to help eliminate toxins. Natural compounds like zeolite and fulvic acid may help the body clear out glyphosate.

Choosing organic foods and taking steps to support detox can help keep your meals healthier and lower your exposure to this hidden toxin. 🌱

Understanding Autoimmune Disorders in Children: What Every Parent Should Know 🇬🇧

Autoimmune disorders are on the rise among children in the UK, with conditions like type 1 diabetes, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and celiac disease affecting thousands of young lives. Type 1 diabetes alone impacts around 29,000 children in the UK, and this is just one of several autoimmune conditions that can disrupt a child’s growth, education, and overall quality of life.

But the story doesn’t end there. Emerging research is exploring potential links between the immune system and neurodevelopmental disorders such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and ADHD. While these conditions are not classified as autoimmune diseases, some studies suggest that immune system dysfunction or chronic inflammation could play a role in their development.

This connection between the immune system and brain development is an area of intense study, and it may one day help us better understand how conditions like ASD and ADHD are influenced by immune health. As this research unfolds, it reinforces the importance of a proactive approach to health—both physical and mental.

Parents, it’s vital to be vigilant about your child’s health. If your child shows signs of autoimmune conditions, such as extreme thirst, frequent urination, or persistent joint pain, or if you notice developmental concerns like those associated with ASD or ADHD, don’t hesitate to seek medical advice. Early diagnosis and intervention can make a significant difference in managing these conditions and improving your child’s quality of life.

Let’s continue to support our children by staying informed and advocating for their health—because every child deserves the best chance at a healthy, happy future. 🌟

Autoimmune Disorders in Children: A Growing Concern in the UK 🇬🇧

Autoimmune disorders don’t just affect adults—they’re becoming increasingly common in children as well. In the UK, it's estimated that around 1 in 10 children will develop an autoimmune condition, with diseases like type 1 diabetes, juvenile arthritis, and celiac disease on the rise.

For children, these conditions can be especially challenging, affecting their growth, development, and overall quality of life. Early symptoms can be subtle—fatigue, unexplained weight changes, or persistent joint pain—but early diagnosis is crucial for managing these conditions effectively.

It’s important for parents to be aware of these risks and to advocate for their children’s health. If your child is experiencing ongoing symptoms that don’t seem right, trust your instincts and seek medical advice. Early intervention can make a huge difference in managing these lifelong conditions.

Let’s work together to ensure our children receive the care they need to thrive, despite these challenges. 🌈

Autoimmune Disorders Aren't Just a Women's Issue—Men Are Affected Too. 💥

While autoimmune diseases are often associated with women, it’s important to know that men aren’t immune. In fact, around 25% of all autoimmune disease cases occur in men—and the impact can be just as severe.

Conditions like type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, and Crohn’s disease don’t discriminate by gender. For men, these disorders can lead to chronic pain, fatigue, and significant lifestyle changes, often striking in the prime of life.

What’s more, societal expectations often push men to "tough it out" and avoid discussing their symptoms. This can delay diagnosis and treatment, worsening the long-term effects.

Men, it’s time to prioritise your health. If you’re experiencing unexplained symptoms like persistent fatigue, joint pain, or digestive issues, don’t hesitate to seek medical advice. Early intervention can make a huge difference.

Let’s break the silence around men’s health and take autoimmune disorders seriously—because your health matters too. 💪

Did you know that over 75% of autoimmune disorders affect women? 🌸

The connection between emotional trauma and physical illness is becoming increasingly clear. Research shows that chronic stress and unresolved trauma can trigger autoimmune diseases, where the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks its own tissues.

From childhood experiences to societal pressures, women often carry a heavy emotional load. This burden can manifest physically, leading to conditions like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and Hashimoto’s disease.

It's crucial that we create environments where women can express their emotions, set boundaries, and prioritize their own well-being without guilt. Empowering women to heal emotionally is not just about mental health—it's about preventing physical disease too.

Let’s break the cycle and create a healthier future for the next generation. 💪

How are is your child/ren feeling about going back to school this week?

I have had one grumpy little girl today, at bed time I asked her what was going on and she outpoured her anxiety about going back to school this week.

We're all so busy I don't think we realise what's going on in their little minds much of the time.

I cam across this post today thought it may be useful for someone x

Note: This is not an endorsement, I have not personally taken part in this. I'm just conscious some children and parents struggle with this change. and it's Free.
