Today we are going to set the record straight on glyphosate. I decided to touch base with a friend of the show and past guest, Dr. Kevin Folta, to help explain the science behind glyphosate, his thoughts on the viral article, and how he responded with his own article. Dr. Folta does a fantastic job explaining the science behind this misunderstood chemical as well as the findings from countless studies done on glyphosate.
