Hi Rose, We can’t paint all chemistry with a broad brush. Each has different interactions with biology, different turnover, different elimination from the body, etc. Glyphosate is well understood. It has no interaction with human biochemistry and 95% passed out of the body in urine and stools. The rest is metabolized in the liver. Most of all, we have no idea about how they detected the compound (it is not simple) and have no idea about its quantitation. This would be years of work. So first, it is not clear if they reliably found anything and even if they did the amounts would be irrelevant — by tens of thousands fold.
