Monsanto, and its German owner Bayer, maintain that glyphosate does not pose a health risk, and government officials say that residues of glyphosate and other pesticides found in food products are almost always so low that they are not considered harmful.

But international scientists affiliated with the World Health Organization have classified glyphosate as probably carcinogenic to humans, and recent studies out of Europe have found glyphosate herbicides pose not just cancer, but other health risks.

    “Thing found” is very different from “dangerous levels of thing found”.

    Yeah - I know you think that “there is no safe level” but that’s not true.

    Also - “probably carcinogenic” is a pretty low bar for the WHO. See also “cooked meat” for things that are “probably carcinogenic”.
