🤓 Glyphosate is used on oat crops after harvest as a dessicant: a type of drying agent.
Because it quickly kills and cures the crops, glyphosate gets the oats to market faster.
Unfortunately, in this case, speed and productivity comes at the expense of our health, and the health of our microbiomes.
Nature Valley's Oatmeal Squares have alarmingly high levels of glyphosate, and you're better off avoiding them.
General Mills produces a wide range of sub-par products through their subsidiaries.
Although we have fond childhood memories of Nature Valley products, they're not doing us any favors.
*please note that no two boxes of these biscuits have the same PPB of glyphosate. several tests indicate alarmingly high glyphosate content, but the exact amounts vary
