That is why people eat organic..
Don't eat your greens and not maintain health. Eat greens at a affordable price and end up consuming glyphosate. Eat organic and eat less glyphosate at a higher cost, but consume greens for health.. Sounds like painting yourself into a box.. If people have the room you could grow your own but that's not viable to many.
For me it's simple. Eat greens, beans, veg and fruits as close to organic as possible. I've been eating this way for over 40 years (yes I'm a geezer) and I'm very healthy. I'm on no meds with stable blood sugar, bp, and lipids. The rare times I go to the doctor he says what ever I'm doing KEEP DOING IT... YMMV, works for me..
