Protecting Your Fertility: A Guide to Reducing Glyphosate Exposure

Episode description
Story at-a-glance
- Research shows that glyphosate exposure, even at “safe” levels, causes hormone imbalance, oxidative stress, and permanent damage to reproductive organs like the ovaries and uterus
- Exposure reduces estrogen and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) while increasing testosterone and progesterone, creating conditions similar to PCOS. It also impairs egg quality and lowers the chance of successful fertilization and implantation
- Glyphosate alters gene expression in the uterus of offspring who were never directly exposed. These inherited disruptions impact fertility for your children and grandchildren
- The chemical shuts down mitochondria, blocks detox enzymes, and depletes essential minerals, setting off a chain reaction that affects everything from hormone production to brain function
- Avoiding glyphosate-contaminated food, filtering your water, eliminating seed oils, and healing your gut are key steps to reverse its impact and regain reproductive and metabolic health
