Glyphosate Hits The Microbiome
- Modern agriculture and drying practices use glyphosate as a desiccant, raising residue in cereal grains and snack bars.
- Ali Miller explains glyphosate acts like a broad‑spectrum antibiotic by targeting microbial shikimate pathways, harming gut microbiomes.
Practical Steps To Reduce Glyphosate Impact
- Offset glyphosate exposure by avoiding cereal grains when possible, choosing organic/regenerative sources, and increasing probiotic and glycine‑rich foods.
- Ali Miller recommends bone broth, dark chicken thighs, fermented foods, glycine supplementation and glutathione support.
Start Meals With Protein
- Put protein first on your child's plate and aim for about 1 gram per pound of body weight for healthy kids.
- Ali Miller says protein supports prefrontal cortex, focus, impulse control, and immune function and can be increased during illness.
