Two of the eight supermarket breads we tested came back with no detectable glyphosate. But does that automatically make them better choices? This article explores what “not detected” really means, and why processing may be part of the story.
Washing produce is often seen as a simple way to remove pesticides. But does that apply to glyphosate? This article explores where that assumption holds — and where it doesn’t.
Rising breast cancer rates and widespread chemical exposure. Coincidence—or connection? Explore the science behind Roundup, hormones, and women’s health.
A South African test found trace glyphosate in a baby cereal also sold in New Zealand. The level was low and below the default limit, but the finding still raises a fair question: should products made for infants contain any detectable residue at all?
Hormones guide development, fertility, metabolism, and the health of entire ecosystems — yet endocrine disruption remains one of the biggest blind spots in New Zealand’s chemical safety system. This four-part investigative series examines what glyphosate-based herbicides are doing to hormonal systems across species and why regulators still can’t see the risks.
New Zealand still evaluates glyphosate with tests that can’t detect the low-dose, timing-specific endocrine effects modern science has uncovered. This final article in our series explores how the regulatory system fell behind—and why it still can’t see the risks right in front of us.
Endocrine disruption isn’t abstract — it shows up in humans, farm animals, wildlife, and entire ecosystems. This article explores what those hormonal shifts look like in the real world, and why the science points to far more than a lab-based concern.
