Is organic food worth it? This study studied people who were not eating organic food, and measured glyphosate and its byproduct in the urine. Samples were collected while the participants ate their usual diet, then after they ate an organic diet. Levels of glyphosate in the urine dropped dramatically after only a few days.

The conclusion: “This research adds to a growing body of literature indicating that an organic diet may reduce exposure to a range of pesticides in children and adults.”

An organic diet was associated with significantly reduced urinary levels of glyphosate and AMPA. The reduction in glyphosate and AMPA levels was rapid, dropping to baseline within three days. This study demonstrates that diet is a primary source of glyphosate exposure and that shifting to an organic...

"In all periods, and in all cultures, men and women have lived at the margins of their “world,” and have chosen to push back the frontiers of the commonplace and break through into the mysterious. These individuals have asked themselves fundamental questions, the same ones that still occupy our minds. Where does Humanity come from? What is the reason for our existence? In what direction, and towards what goal, are we heading? Those who have asked themselves these questions have had what may be called a “mystical awakening.” Such questioning has often been experienced, but is only rarely spoken of, for fear of being judged, misunderstood, or even ill-treated; but on occasion it has managed to make real sense for those I shall call “free souls,” among them Rosicrucians, now, just as in the past."
