Glyphosate (Great Plains Laboratory Inc.)
- The Glyphosate Test uncovers your exposure to Glyphosate, the world’s most widely produced herbicide (weedkiller) used in more than 700 different forestry, agricultural and home products.
- Dr. Ahn recommends this test to patients because research has shown glyphosate exposure to be the cause of many chronic health problems including metabolic disorder, diabetes, depression, autism, cardiovascular disease, obesity, autoimmune disease and more.
- The test screens for Glyphosate levels in your diet and/or water source, which is important because Glyphosate can enter the body by direct absorption through the skin, by eating foods treated with the herbicide, or by drinking water contaminated with it.
- To take the test, simply provide one urine sample in the vial provided or submit a sample of your local water.
- The results of the test can help determine how Glyphosate is entering your system and how you can avoid future exposure. Eating non-GMO (genetically modified organism) foods and drinking reverse osmosis water are two of the best ways to avoid glyphosate.
