Chlormequat: A Dangerous New Pesticide Now in People and the U.S. Food Supply
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 июн 2024
- In a groundbreaking study, EWG found chlormequat, a toxic pesticide, in 80% of people tested. Linked to serious reproductive health issues in animals, its presence in people and popular oat-based foods like Cheerios and Quaker Oats raises serious human health concerns.
Hear from EWG experts on what you need to know about chlormequat and how join the fight to get this chemical out of our food and our bodies.
Yet the Department of Agriculture goes after an Amish organic farmer stating it was unsafe, but will not go after corporate farms for poisoning our food supply. What does that tell you.
Tells me everything I need to know about our 100% corrupt government
Food control.
🌍ek-oh-nom-ick 4 umm
They want us to ingest 🦗🪳🪱 - mealworms, crickets and such
Everything I need to know.
Yes, absolute madness.
It tells me the wealthy own every branch of Federal and State govts. It tells me the wealthy see us as things for use and abuse.
Message to Cheerios - I will never buy your product again. Too bad. I love Cheerios - but apparently the manufacturer does not value my health. Bye bye. Forever.
I used to be a Cheerios fan myself (well-over a decade ago before I went organic) NATURE"S PATH Organic makes what they call "Whole-O's", and they are excellent. This company is transparent and family-owned. Also, ONE DEGREE Organics is equally as good.
With ingredients like "Sugar, Modified Corn Starch, Honey, Brown Sugar Syrup, Salt" rounding out ingredients 2 though 5 i'd say they care for your health about as much as a soda company. 🙂
@@bchristine58Thanks for this information! I see that item on the shelf, will try it 👍👍🌹
yup, quit them 10 years ago... been the bet 10 years in some regards..... more should try getting away from these polluted grains
Grateful everyone is speaking up! Some of us have been saying this for 15 years!
Eating clean and staying Away from chemicals is a full-time job
To what end? What is the purpose other than corporate greed over the health of all their grandchildren and ours
Your not wrong there 👌👍 when you’re paranoid because it’s in the air it’s in the water it’s in the food hitting us from every direction 👍
It is impossible… humanity playing God.
Cereal isn't even healthy for you. Kelloggs forced it on the US population. I'm glad I don't eat it.
To this end agenda 2021 and 2030.... Is in full effect
It might be a surprise to people in the USA but here in france since 2014 nearly 3 million acres has been turned over to organic farming , Germany and Spain also have exceeded this , people here are really concerned about what is in the food they eat , I’m always surprised when I see the way organic farmers are treated in the USA
Correct me if im wrong but isn't there A(GOV)WAR AGAINST YOUR FARMERS🤔
@@Dellicatspurrit’s against US farmers as well-by the WEF. Shut down over 1 MILLION farms already.
USA gov is EVIL. I mean that literally, they are not fully human
❤🙏🏼
Organic is a lie. You're confused.
Cheerio and Quaker .. I’ll never buy your products again..
You should probably stay away from General Mills altogether. It’s not just Cheerios that are dangerous.

Comment of the week!
Agree 100% and been trying to tell people that for years, There is so much financial influence in everything now that is has become a danger.
Also critical infrastructure of any sort should NOT be connected to the internet, Power stations and water supply as an example.
Investment groups and foreign actors buying up land/property. Yet people would rather vote in politicians pushing culture war nonsense. These people are dragging us in to hell.
Pharma and food are interconnected.
Truth
These are the type topics need to be discussed during presidential debate and mainstream media
Exactly
Finally! I agree.
Yep this is def presidential
Absolutely.
The only candidate talking about it is Bobby Kennedy.
It’s in the food because they want it in the food.
That's true. They treat the people like cattle you know.
Don’t be so quick to declare things like this to be complicated, multilayer, evil plan type stuff… it is usually just profit motive without any concern for consequences on consumers.
They don’t care about you & it makes them more money - simple as that, 99% of the time.
@@chrisn.6477 please go back to /r/capitalism you useless waste of oxygen
It’s in the food because capitalism wants it in the food. Whatever makes the “farmer” more money and is allowed is what makes it end up in our food. Who is the “they” you are referring to?
The EPA is supposed to protect us but Trump appointed heads of government agencies who wanted to ensure those agencies wouldn’t do their job protecting American people, and would help huge corporations instead. The EPA can’t do its job when its hands are tied.
So capitalism is the problem? Does that mean that communist countries only grow organic foods? Try thinking rather than repeating other people's rubbish. And I suppose our EPA isn't corrupted.
Fertility. Population reduction through food.
mores so profit from sicknesses, profit from yields... don;t forget, they need consumers
Most people are too stupid, incompetent and greedy, and as the narcissists that they are, will fall to the lowest common denominator to make their gains out of exploitation. For some it is power, others control and wealth, then of course some want fewer on the planet. It is a pyramid of narcissists and disciple scientists and minions in media are the ultimate tools for politicians, government and corporations to carry out their evil agenda against humanity.
@curiousbystander9193 Maybe you think so, but wef has already established that only 800 thousand are required to look after the elites. The rest of humanity is disposable.
So, my comment has been erased within 30 seconds.
@kaaspakhuis438 you're being censored. I know I am, this is happening when I make comments lately, especially on controversial things that are considered taboo.
Meanwhile we're being told by news stations to eat cereal for dinner. People really need to start waking up.
well the increasing people waking up due to the internet's information transparency has made them put more and more individuals on the ''alt-right terrorism'' list and pushing for internet information legislation. They're a VERY hefty ''enemy'' of narrative control (psychopathic really, hmm I wonder the prevalence of psychopathic traits in those FDA boards) and they're all-in.
Struggling families should eat more cereal... trying to chemically neuter the poor.
eat your cereal and take your drugs... oh, and shut up too
CNBC brought the CEO of Kellogg on air to advocate for citizens to eat cereal for dinner to save money. Took me all of 2 seconds to find it here on YT.
It’s true just watched the CNBC news clip of the Kellogg ceo telling to eat cereal for dinner as a solution to inflated food prices. People like him should be prosecuted at the highest level and be in prison for the rest of there life
"US food supply." Let's not be limited to relying on corporations to feed us, but let us work for freedom from these issues by learning to produce our own food.
Everyone should be outraged this affect everyone including your kids and babies
Every, EVERY SINGLE govt agency has been captured it's not about safety. Its about PROFIT

Food from the United States is banned in 140 countries
Yup
what?!?!?
@@anastasiabananastasia look it up it is not hard to find, there are many chemicals, pesticides, GMO items that have been banned in other countries for along time now that Americans have to endure because our FDA is literally owned by corporations. All American made items that go to these countries have to change their recipes or the foods are not allowed on their shelves. It has been this way for years and the lists just keep getting longer. We are not told this, but it is not entirely hidden either. You must do your own research to make your own decisions about things because you cannot trust your government. Be aware.
It’s no wonder we have an obesity and a health crisis. We are being systemically poisoned
But yet...they make it over there but send it to us.😳
What can I do to complain of Quaker Oats? I have been eating them each morning for the past 8 years!!! We need to do something about these chemicals in our foods.
Stop buying from them. Supply & demand- if they don't buy, they can't sell, simple economics.😅
Please contact them (QO) calling them out and tell them you will stop consuming their products. Get your friends to do, likewise. Also, check out the action link that was near the end of the above clip. Thanks.
Tell everyone you know what is happening and stop buying their poison.
My aunt is 99 years old and she's been eating original Cheerios for years. Still has her faculties, ambulatory, can live independently. No health issues to speak of. I'm not supporting the cereal just stating a fact.
Hi Charlotte... Cheerios has probably become much more tainted and contaminated over the years. Plus, since your aunt was born in the 1920's, she didn't grow up on chemical, industrial foods during her critical FORMATIVE years -- which makes a MASSIVE difference to one's health later in life... Chemical agriculture really took off after WW2, and soil mineral depletion (significant nutrient depletion in crops) plus hoards of toxic inputs have really taken their toll. Plus children today get plowed with toxic pharmaceuticals & interventions, EMFs etc. which further compromise immunological and neurological health.
idk how other countries ban something and we sit here in the US and do nothing for years
It’s cause we are headed toward N Korea status. Do you think the US-Mexican wall was to keep others out? No. It was the beginning of sealing us up to be lambs for the slaughter.
Because the American government have you guys fighting each other over stupid things, like Trump or biden....both are old illuminate puppets
Chlormequat has been around and used on non food crops for a long time. They know the risks. This seems like it should have criminal implications, not just civil for this public endangerment.
Class action time. That is the only way to stop "for profit poisoning".
@@user-lb6hp6se4g that's not enough they can handle class action lawsuites and still churn a huge profit. This is time to implement the second amendment on a mass scale. that's what it's for to fight tyranny.
Yep. It's been around and they know how bad it is. Banned all over the world. And one of the fist things Biden did as president was to make it legal, not only to keep using it in the US, but also to now allow it to be sprayed from the air over crops. What a disgrace.😭
My pesticide: artemisia vulgaris, mint, coffee, hot pepper seeds, garlic and tobacco. infused, a great drink too if you go mild on the tobacco!
It's almost as if they didn't want us to reach pension age 🤣
🎯
do you think they eat something different, these clowns are eating the same shit and poisoning themselves as well they are just greedy bastards
just one reason. add depopulation, keeping hospitals and big pharma well paid, and a society of physically and mentally ill cant make good judgements or argue.
@@gregaiken1725depopulation is bad for everyone. it's because our economy is in efficient and unregulated. Capitalism and it's contradictions. The market is not regulating itself. And it's not other regulations getting in the way. Folks don't have the time for the research on their food. EPA is bought out by corporations where people want to increase shareholder value instead knowing what the fuck they're doin and it's killing us. The corporations use the government to their advantage. They've bought our politicians. Now thankfully it's not 100% corporate control or we'd literally revolt. It's just at the point where we're slowly dying but not dying fast enough to get people angry.
Educate yourself. Don't fall into the traps or just plain hatred. There are other demons who will blame this on the "other" it's not a fairy tale. Although I will say there are some comically evil Disney book villains out there. Alas People are victims to their circumstances. It's the machine that is poisoning us.
You mean SS? Barely anyone even gets a pension anymore. They already took that one away for the most part
Everything regarding food production is going to change drastically! Grow or buy from local vendors. Please for you and your family!
I'm just glad we have RUclips so we can learn about what is going on out there and hopefully start to change our world into a better place. It's pretty shocking right now.
EPA isnt any better than the FDA. Revolving door of lobbiest
Revolving door of Democrats corruption ✅👻
FDA is mostly owned by pharm companies via buying out personnel
epa, fda, faa, all for sale to the highest bidder.
lobbyist*
The EPA said it was okay to put a sewer pipe right up the middle of the Mojave River where I grew up at the year was 1980
The EPA seems more worried about a puddle of water on a cattle ranch than things that really matter. If they worked on things like this many more Americans would support them, instead of hating to even hear their name.
WHAT if that puddle runs thru the shit of say 10000 cows and empties into a pristine salmon river ? But of course a religious zealot conspiracist probably thinks thats god way right?
The EPA is infiltrated by Marxists. The goal is to transfer power to a one-world communist government. This means you utilize "climate change" as an excuse to hurt the people and structures that strengthen countries until they submit, including the food supply. This is what the EPA has been dedicated to since at least the Obama maladministration, destroying Republican-voting ranchers and farmers, disrupting ranching and the supply of meat, and instituting federal land grabs as much as possible in order to stifle economic growth in Republican-dominated states. Crush the foundation of a nation's food supply and eventually, it will fall, allowing the new communist utopia. Think I'm crazy? I'm not gluing my hand to concrete or destroying irreplaceable works of art as a means of destroying a nation's history and heritage. That's being done in the name of "climate change" too.
The EPA was overhauled by one of our presidents. The agency had all the environmental leaders removed and replaced by Monsanto's people. It's non existent as an environmental agency.
EPA is a POLITICAL driven CORRUPT agency that's why✅👻👻
It’s pleasant not only to read a good comment but also see “than” and “their” being used correctly (implies a good education, thus increased credibility in a comment)
Thank u so much for your time and candor on the EPA
Thank you for the info!
Why don’t we start suing the FDA?
*The same tiny hats who run the FDA run the government.*
*Eventually you'll realize why they've been removed in 109 countries and it ain't because they have funny side-burns*
*Wake up and smell the control that exists on your society. Look at faces, look at eye colors, look at noses, look at ears. You'll see a clear pattern everywhere you go where there is a camera and an opportunity for power, suggestion, change, etc.*
*Wake up.*
Because nobody has the money or power to do so.

I think a class action should be done. Need a brave lawyer and $$. I read someone wanted to fundraiser for it. Can you imagine if everyone concerned gave like $5.00 to fund it?
Once again we see a dereliction of duty in government to assure food safety for consumers!
You can't talk like that. It is verboten. The us is supporting two wars, youcrane and izreel. The people of us need to inform themselves, you can't let the state protect you.

Dont you mean stripping the office so that rich buddies can make more money its not the governments fault when the far right shrinks the office to protect cronies
In these cases this usually goes hand in hand with corruption where lobbyists and lawyers of cooperations influenced the decision making process. Yes there are then some people in government that criminally fucked up, but not all of them all the time.
@@censured-again seems to happen a lot!

Please sue for food poisoning.
Unfortunately you can't because they're just following government guidelines. And corporations use that as a cop out. Even though they are often the ones that have those guidelines put in place
@@HaHaThatIsFunny Not true. Chapter one of Business law proves that a firm cannot contract away negligence. Negligence wins lawsuits, this is why both Moderna and Pfizer are being sued. The death rate is up 15% in all vaccinated nations !!
Or just remove your government, elect new leaders, write a new constitution that removes any opportunity from these people from coming back into your land and actually prospering?
Or...you know...continue to believe that voting works. Even though an elementary student proved a decade ago all the presidents including Trump and even Hillary are related to English Royalty.
It's ironic, you guys all have the declaration of independence, but still elect the monarchy bloodlines and still exist as an extension of the british crown and you don't even know it.
This is why so many people have problems with wheat and other grains like oats

Let’s not forget about glyphosate (also found in roundup weed killer) is in these breakfast cereals. Basically death in a bowl.
I called Quaker Oats about the levels of Round Up in their oats a decade ago after reading how farmers were spraying it on the oat crop to speed up the dry down of the oats to get to market sooner. I was given a canned response from the customer service person how they met all federal regulations concerning glyphosate in the oats. She would not say what levels were in their product, but could not say there was none. That was the last time I purchased any Oats other than certified organic.
How can you/we proove that Certified Organic is actually 💯Organic🤔
I watch farmers in Kansas spray their wheat fields with glyphosate to hasten the cure time on their crops. They still do it to this day.
Organic oats are still sprayed just with untested “organic” pesticides
@@Dellicatspurr for what its worth, I've done tests with insects, specifically crickets bought from pet stores....when I feed them regular, Quaker oats there is usually either big die off the next day or a continuous die off over the next few days. When I tried "organic" oats from a collective of supposed organic farmers the mortality rates are much, much lower and they live longer overall
So long as the product is 77%ish organic, they can label it organic. The real question is do they spray it anyway, & majority of the time they still do. The term "Organic" is just a marketing buzz word at this point. You have to do your due diligence & find out if the company practices actually reflect true organic food, or if they just use that term to prop themselves up over conventional.
Thank you for speaking the truth.
General Mills needs to get this out of our food! I'll not going to buy their cereals any longer until they show it's been fixed.
These big food companies have politicians working for them that are passing the laws about what is safe to put in our food. Follow the money trail. The love of money is the root of all evil.
Draw and quarter
I see Robert Kennedy Jr focused on this topic. Specifically, he’s interested in tackling the capture of the agency itself. Former Monsanto Board member now sits on EPA board …. 🤔🤔

EPA’s mission statement: To protect human health & the environment. Do they not eat the same food we eat? This is just more freakin craziness… Thank you EWG for bringing this to our attention.
I checked and found it easy to purchase online. This has been sold since being discovered in the fifties. It’s disruptive to human reproductive systems. Just great.
This chemical is something I was completely unaware of and understand it isn't banned in the UK or EU. Food should be produced locally, but food production is becoming an increasingly global business with foodstuffs transported across the world. It's therefore a real challenge to ensure that foods don't contain chemicals that have been banned in the country of consumption and I don't believe enough is being done to ensure compliance with regulations and maintain a high standard of food quality by the regulatory authorities.
the moment the vid. stated "imported INTO the US" I immediately waited to find out WHERE this was coming from. I'm still waiting.
@@user-zf3xb3qx8w Ecuador India and Canada are the top three and in 2018 the US president lifted the ban on pesticide on imported oats the same year Canada allowed its farmers to use it on theirs.

Thank you for promoting visibility into this.
I escaped the US where I was allergic to ALL of the wheat and dairy (regular and organic). In the EU I can eat anything and everything without any issues whatsoever! Many Americans have the same experience. It is so hard to heal from autoimmune and inflammatory issues in the US when the food supply is so contaminated and the landscaping around apartments, businesses etc are sprayed with pesticides every month!!! Other countries in the world don't do that...well at least for the moment. Sad to say that the EU has recently made terrible decisions and the food supply here will be contaminated more and more over the next decade. I am enjoying the good food for now anyway. Also Poland, France and Germany have had huge protests where farmers are unhappy about changes too. Looks like big corp are wanting to drive out farmers and buy up farmland here for a dystopian future 😢
Dont forget that if they say its in grains then its ten fold in meat products as the animals are fed lots of grains
What a pernicious finding.
if it is IN THE FOOD ISNT THAT AN INGREDIENT and shouldn't it be listed as such ?
there is glyphosate in the oats too
They definitely do not list all of the pesticides used as being in the food or no one would ever buy them. They will deny that they are present in the food even with scientific data.
No, they are not required to add an item as an ingredient. If it is not a food ingredient. Probably in the fine print, "must include all food items,", but it doesn't include poisonous items.
Please come to the Central Valley of California. We have an extremely high proportion of autism. UC Davis had been researching the agricultural chemicals in relationship to the ever growing diagnosis of autism. I’ve never heard any follow up.
There have been no cases of autism in non-vaccinated children. Vaccinated children exposed to these chemicals get the worst types of autism.
I was thinking the same thing. Autism may be related to all of these engineered foods & chemicals in growth of our 'no longer' natural foods.
yes, my grand children,many has been diagnosis of autism.
Why are we not getting lawsuits going?

Which products were tested chlormequat-free? Is this information published or available to consumers?
Not sure about the USA but in the UK the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs publishes pesticide residue reports for all food groups sold in UK supermarket by taking random samples every month from stores. You can check which brands/producers are consistently pesticide free and the many which aren't. The lists are extensive.

I literally just read an article on this chemical this morning, and the article mentioned that they tested many wheat and oat cereal products, and some of the culprits were several General Mills products including Cheerios, and Quaker Food products including their old-fashioned oats and granola bars. They also tested generic products from Walmart and Target that included granola and cereals.

After realizing just how much double standards and serious conflicts of interest exist in the FDA me not trust Anyone there!
This new chlormequat pesticide in oat products is concerning. It's also bad they found it in the urine of so many people in their study.
I find it odd they call this a pesticide when it's not. In fact it's a plant growth regulator.
I believe it to be a lie -- impossible they don't know that.
So hard to stay away from crops treated with harmful chemicals. Farmers LOVE them as they do Roundup
EWG, you need to provide a link to that page in the description of the video--especially when it's a hard-to-spell word like "chlormequat" that many people won't want to even attempt to type. It also seems that the form is erroring out upon submission.
I have only purchased organically grown oats for years.
Is that the option? I'm trying to get a takeaway from this
@@sl4983yes, organic grains should not be sprayed with most chemicals
US organic does not mean organic in the way humans believe. It is a legal term with acceptable limits... It means less, not none.
Is this the evergreening practice of agrochemicals business? The updated version of paraquat and diquat? They used to be used to dry out grains for harvesting, rather than naturally maturing, since grain in a field matures at different rates and sheds their seeds. It was a way to maximize harvest and reduce grain loss. Always a dodgy toxic practice since both these chemicals are highly toxic. Their use was predicated on the idea that they broke down quickly and easily into "harmless " by products
Should have put the paper (or rather a link to it) in the video description.
This girl ressemble my first love with an added understanding of the importance of those issues. I shared the information. I can feel they use new pesticides when I buy any commercial food, new after treatments (Formaline, Gaz, Apeel, etc.) and new GMO too. Things are not good for the 'consumers' anymore. Better become all gardeners and start trading again.
It would be great if you added a clickable link to your petition for people to sign.
Right? Like where's the info??
So how do we join the fight as said in the description box above?
What is the actual amount of chlormequat over what amount of time that affected reproduction in animals?... and what % of that amount was found in the human subjects?
Every article about agrichemicals MUST include these numbers!
Simply put, the EPA is a U.S. Governmental entity that stands between and protects huge corporations from consumer's potentially crippling class action law suits. How? By LEGALIZING hazardous and deadly chemicals. Nice article... short and to the point.
No more cheerios for me
This should have been you ...7 years ago! They are trying to kill us ! DEPOPULATE !
Thank you so much for this report. I've had to move to three different countries to find an affordable environment "mostly" free of agrichemicals like this one. Chemical drift off fields in the USA and then the UK made me seriously ill. When in doubt - run! Then spread the alarm to all!

It is so hard to heal from autoimmune and inflammatory issues in the US when the food supply is so contaminated and the landscaping around apartments, businesses etc are sprayed with pesticides every month!!! Other countries in the world don't do that...well at least for the moment. Sad to say that the EU has recently made terrible decisions and the food supply here will be contaminated more and more over the next decade. I am enjoying the good food for now anyway. Also Poland, France and Germany have had huge protests where farmers are unhappy about changes too. Looks like big corp are wanting to drive out farmers and buy up farmland here for a dystopian future 😢
yup..... and they have an expansion in autoimmune dieases@@faraboverubieskerry
Where did you move to?
Folks farmers don't apply off label products. We aren't scientist, we go by label directions ,we have to in order to keep our pesticides license.
Food companies,oil companies and tech companies are completely out of control and no one seems to be doing anything!
Which products have this chemical? The article mentioned 7 of the tested products are organic oats still have the chemical. Could you provide more info on which products to avoid vs which organic options don't have the chemicals?
We need more clarity for people to choose foods that don't destroy our health and future as a nation.
@@KH-hc6syIt is easier to assume all plant foods are affected. That would therefore by association include near-meat.
Following
I literally just read an article on this chemical this morning and it listed General Mills, Cheerios and Quaker Foods Old fashioned oats, and generic products from Walmart and Target that included cereals and granolas
@@censured-again all food in Canada and USA is full of shit. Nothing is naturally full of nutrients anymore. Everyone is tampered with.
I eat oats like crazy, I was thinking it was one of the safer crops to still eat. Why only in the US? Are we the guinea pigs again like they're doing with high fructose corn syrup now?
Why only in the US? Because all of our agencies are captured - meaning they are under the evil of the BIG Ag and Pharma companies (profit-driven) who actually dictate government ... sad, but true. HFCS has already been recognized as unhealthy by most - if not all; however they (our institutions) still tell us that 'a little is okay'. It is NOT in any way, shape or form.
You've been done gotten addicted to HFCS ages ago.
Read the labels of your food.
I always turn to social media for medical advice. The constant is thoroughly researched scrutinized investigated and accepted, much like the Joe Rogan podcast.
Thanks for your incisive info as usual. Interesting thing here is how this movie seems to align, in some ways, with actual events in Amybeth McNulty's real life. She has publicly commented on the unfortunate loss
of her mother, grandmother, and father... all within the same timeframes as the movie's creation and release.
We all KNOW the EPA are bought and paid for by the same people that make these bad chemicals. That's like asking the drug dealer to be a good boy and help clean up the neighborhood from crime.
@kgamaseg Well,I'm here in Europe and it's not any different...we import those products.. ...and get kept in the dark about the detrimental consequences..greets to you ,stay mindful❤
Thanks for sounding the alarm! But it would have been nice if consumers were also told how to avoid Chlormequat. It's the same idea as the whole Glyphosate concern. Buy ORGANIC! I have a whole video about this.

gly in the oats too...look it up
I was in Kalispell and the skidloads of Glyphosphate the sell was a horror show. Even the stores in Canada sell it very sparingly.
lots of diagnostic categories expanded with it in the food, for sure@@user-zf3xb3qx8w
It is a toxic soup all the way down.
Nothing is more important than what’s in food and no one seems to care
I know what you mean EVERYONE SHOULD BE OUTRAGED !!!!
BUT...................
THEY'RE DUMBED DOWN WITH THE FLUORIDE AND OTHER THINGS🤔🤔
I started thinking of cereal as sweetened packing peanuts and stopped eating it years ago.
The scary part is that they target kids with that garbage, and advertisers have no problem promoting it.
I think we need to stop using chemicals all together
You first. Stop drinking water.
@@CStoph1979 that makes no sense. You can grow crops without chemicals. Yes it's hard but not impossible
@@eligebrown8998 Water is a chemical.
Wrong
@@eligebrown8998 Water is a chemical. Most everything in soil is a chemical. Plants are comprised of chemicals. You need to be more specific in what you mean by chemical, here.
Please keep spreading the awareness!! Also, more of Alexis please.
This is why we buy organic when we can. And why I grow my own vegetables and strawberries - totally organic. I even make my own compost. It’s a lot of work but definitely peace of mind.
Presidential candidate RFKjr would make a great health advocate. He is also very concerned about how pesticides are harming people.
I eat Bob’s red mill gf oats and looked on their website and learned they do NOT use chlormequat in their products.
Omg good to know. I bought their organic wheat flour
I hope they are being honest to the public.
@@zeemc2751 Bob's Red Mill is one of the "good guys". Bob recently passed away, but for years refused to sell out to the BIG Corporations, and his employees have ownership within the company. Good choice :)
I appreciate that, but I dislike building society on a "pay extra to not have poison in your food" model.
@@thealkymyst It's time to break up BIG FARMING and all the BIG FOOD CORPORATIONS.
Thankyou EWG. There are many health concern reasons why the EU bans certain foods and products from USA. With the USA it is ALWAYS profits over people. Sad.
But chlormequat is approved and used in the EU, so, didn't you get that backwards ?
@@FreqBandExactly! It is NOT approved in the US and IS approved in both the EU and Canada.
@@ReflectedMiles the vid. states "imported" then doesn't mention any source.
You've been brainwashed to believe that. This is why you completely missed the "imported" statement in the video. "Profits" are NOT evil, they are necessary. Without them we cannot live. If the government makes all these chemicals illegal and ensures that we have 100% natural and healthy food are you ready for your grocery bill to double? Are you willing to pay the price? Because organic does NOT come easy or cheap.
I signed a petition and I know it didn't do any good but I will continue
Based on the available data, the use of Chlormequat can be considered net positive if and only if it is used responsibly within the framework of existing regulations and best practices. Continuous monitoring, adherence to safety guidelines, and ongoing research are essential to ensure that its benefits outweigh the potential risks.
For policymakers and regulatory bodies, this means maintaining strict oversight and updating guidelines based on the latest scientific findings. For farmers and applicators, this involves following recommended practices to minimize environmental impact and health risks.
Therefore, the data suggests that Chlormequat should be used, but with stringent controls and best practices to ensure its net positive impact.
