257% Over the Limit: New Baby Food Test Uncovers Dangerous Lead Levels

A new independent lab test, commissioned by the holistic food scanning app Olive, has found that several popular baby food products contain lead levels up to 257% higher than California's Prop 65 daily limit. This is the largest heavy metal screening of baby food to date, analyzing close to 300 products from major brands. Lead is a known neurotoxin, and there is no safe level of exposure, particularly for children. Even small amounts can permanently impact brain development, lower IQ, and increase risks for learning disabilities, attention issues, and behavioral problems.  While California’s Prop 65 law sets daily maximum intake limits, federal agencies like the FDA have still not established enforceable limits for heavy metals in most baby foods. This regulatory gap allows brands to continue selling contaminated products with no accountability.

Big Ag Wants the Same Immunity As Vaccine Companies

Bayer/Monsanto, Syngenta/ChemChina, and Dow/Dupont are Brainwashing our Senators to Present Bills to Prevent Cancer Lawsuits Against AgroChemical Companies.

Big Ag wants immunity from lawsuits. The rights of individuals, localities, and states to be able to sue agrochemical companies is critically at stake. The plot by Big Ag, via The ModernAgAlliance.org,  to pass state-by-state bills, filed in eleven states, Idaho, North Dakota, Wyoming, Oklahoma, Georgia, Montana, Missouri, Iowa, Mississippi, Tennessee, Florida - but we expect there will be bills in twenty-one.  

Bayer/Monsanto has just hired 20 agrochemical lobbyists to convince your Senators and Congressmembers that they should enjoy complete immunity from lawsuits, just like the vaccine companies. In other words, they should be able to produce pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides, and as long as the EPA gives them a license to do so (which does not establish safety for human exposure), then they could never be sued for cancer or other harmful impacts due to exposure to their products.

Meanwhile, the drugs they sell that treat the harm their products cause, like cancer, depression, and fertility drugs, will continue to soar. That is why we are calling them the Make America $ick Again Bills, it's a perfect profit circle for them that they want to protect.  We think that rather than our elected officials giving Bayer executives another beach house, they should protect us in our house. The number one reason for bankruptcy, which can lead to homelessness, is medical debt. Taking away their resident's right to sue for harm is unjust and dangerous for our communities. Compensation for harm from any unsafe product is necessary for product accountability and the health and security of our communities.

These bills give Big Ag complete immunity from individuals for violating​ federal labeling law, letting them cover up dangers without consequence. This cannot happen on our watch!

The Biggest Fight For Our Lives: Chemical Companies Push for Immunity from Accountability and Safety of 57,000 Chemicals

Most people in America are well aware now that 70 - 90% of our chronic health issues, cancer, infertility, mental health issues, and death are preventable. They are caused not just by genetics, but by either one time or repeated exposure to low and high levels of harmful chemicals found in nearly everything, including our water, food, air, vaccines, wine, pajamas, cookware, sanitary products, kitchen cabinets, flooring, cars, clous seeding chemicals, cleaning fragrances at work, and in the rain that falls on our gardens. Over 86,000 chemicals are allowed in our environment, including food, homes, body care, and hundreds of other daily exposure points.

PFAS, Forever Chemicals, Have Been Found in The Blood of 97-100% of Americans: Including Newborn Babies.

The harmful health effects of PFAS have been known for over two decades, with internal industry documents revealing evidence of toxicity as early as 1995. Despite clear and mounting scientific evidence, including a 2020 study linking PFAS to immune dysfunction and increased cancer risk, our government has failed to take meaningful action. Today, PFAS are detected in the blood of 97–100% of Americans, including newborn babies. These forever chemicals are linked to serious health effects backed by peer-reviewed studies and major health agencies, including cancer, infertility, hormone disruption, immune suppression, liver damage, low birth weights, developmental delays in children, and metabolic disorders.

Detox Done Right: Why Your Body Needs Drainage Support First

In light of recent testing that revealed the presence of glyphosate in popular breakfast cereals, including many labeled organic, it’s clear that avoiding toxic exposures entirely is no longer possible. These chemicals are in our soil, water, food, and the air we breathe. While we continue to advocate for a cleaner food supply, we must also support our bodies in dealing with the daily burden of unavoidable toxins. That starts with making sure our detoxification systems are functioning properly.

Five Ways Glyphosate Has Caused Your Food Prices to Rise

You may have seen Bayer’s recent disturbing attempt to manipulate public opinion: an ad campaign framing glyphosate as a vital “tool” for farmers. They go on to use fear tactics, claiming our food costs will skyrocket if we don’t have policies like a pesticide immunity shield that would protect them from lawsuits. This blatant corporate propaganda ignores the devastating truth: glyphosate is harming our food system, our health, and our economy. In fact, its use is directly contributing to higher food prices in several ways.
