(Isabelle Z.) If you’ve had the misfortune of getting sick this winter, there’s a good chance the experience has left you seeking ways to enhance your immunity. While eating foods rich in vitamins and using herbs like echinacea can make a difference, there’s one way you can help out your immune system that you might have overlooked: addressing the effects of glyphosate on your system.
Related New Study Finds 41% Increase In Cancer Risk From Roundup’s Glyphosate

Glyphosate’s link to cancer rightfully gets the most attention, but it’s also important to keep in mind that it can threaten your body’s defenses by lowering your levels of glutathione. This is your body’s top antioxidant, and one study even suggests that it’s so important that the amount of it in your cells can predict your life expectancy.
Unfortunately, glyphosate has been found to cause “significant changes” in your cells by depleting the body of glutathione, reducing their ability to protect from bacteria and other invaders. If you’re not already sticking to organic food, switching should be your first course of action. Even if you’ve made the switch a long time ago, however, you’re not out of the woods; there is simply too much glyphosate in our food supply and environment to successfully avoid every last trace of it. Moreover, factors like aging and stress can also deplete glutathione, so even a little bit of glyphosate exposure, when combined with other factors, can leave you lacking this master antioxidant.
Thankfully, researchers have found ways that you can reverse its effects when it comes to antioxidant depletion. Supplementing with vitamins C and E can raise your levels of glutathione as well as another important antioxidant, superoxide dismutase, reducing the damage that glyphosate causes. You can also get vitamin C from foods like red peppers, strawberries, and oranges.
In addition, vitamin C can protect against the effects of other synthetic chemicals. For example, one study showed that taking vitamin C prior to exposure to a neonicotinoid insecticide known as imidacloprid protected mice from the oxidative stress it causes. The researchers believe it has this effect by reducing fat oxidation and boosting the liver’s antioxidant defense systems.
You can also choose foods that are known to help decrease the oxidative stress in your body and raise glutathione levels. Those rich in sulfur, like onions, garlic and eggs, are a good starting point. You can also start eating more cruciferous vegetables like kale, cauliflower, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts.
Glyphosate impacts immunity in several ways
You might already be aware that glyphosate has been linked to non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which is a cancer of the immune system. In fact, a recent analysis found that it raises your risk of cancer by 41 percent, despite Roundup manufacturer Monsanto’s insistence it isn’t harmful. Thousands of people with the condition are suing the company; a former school groundskeeper with the disease was awarded $289 million in damages by a jury last year, although this was later reduced to roughly $78 million after Monsanto appealed.
Another way glyphosate can compromise your immunity is by destroying the beneficial bacteria in your gut, such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. These helpful bacteria assist your body in absorbing nutrients, producing vitamins and fatty acids, and neutralizing toxins, in addition to giving your immunity a boost.
If you want to help restore your body’s good gut bacteria, one step you can take is eating fermented foods like yogurt, sauerkraut, kefir, or kimchi. You should also eat foods that are rich in polyphenols, such as dark chocolate and cocoa, green tea, blueberries, and red wine.
You are likely exposed to more glyphosate than you think, no matter what steps you take to minimize your exposure, so protecting your immunity with the help of probiotics and vitamin C should be a top priority.
Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The Deep State use many different strategies and techniques to maintain their claim to unjust power. By creating health problems in the human population, they know it will create emotional distractions that prevent people from learning the truth, keeping them uninformed so they’ll crave the safe arms of the state. Additionally, the powers that be also learned that the mind-body connection is real, developing a host of weapons to attack the human mind through the body. Of which, glyphosate or Roundup is one of the most effective compounds for this purpose. This chemical destroys gut flora in the body. Gut bacteria is essential for proper health, especially the regulation of the immune system. The immune system regulates the inflammation response, while the gut helps to regulate emotion and mood. By destroying gut flora diversity, this severely compromises the immune system and destabilizes the mind by making it difficult for one to manage their mood and desires. In effect, one who’s suffered a great deal of gut and immune assaults is more irrational, emotionally unstable, has a harder time facing reality and consequently, has learning problems. All this helps make them the perfect Deep State pawn, a willing slave, unbeknownst to them. The preceding article reveals information about glyphosate and its effects on health. By gaining an understanding of these effects, one can motivate themselves to make better health choices. With the skill of health maintenance firmly in hand, one can lead a fulfilling life, act more compassionately toward others, and leave a positive impact on the world around them.
