glyphosate is widely used in the field of pesticides in 13 countries around the world, and the United States accounts for about 2% of the consumption, about 28 million pounds, with a per capita weight of 1 pound, so it is not so surprising to find glyphosate in drinking water.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has determined that glyphosate, the main pesticide of Monsanto, is "possibly a carcinogen", and its International Agency for Research on Cancer has determined it as a class 2A carcinogen. Many non-governmental organizations and university research institutions advocate excluding Monsanto's lobbying influence to ban glyphosate. Currently, the Sri Lankan government has banned it.
The study found that glyphosate was detected in 7% of domestic drinking water in the United States, with a concentration of .85-.33ppb. The US Environmental Protection Department set an upper limit of .4ppb, while the EU's was stricter, only .1ppb! Because German scientists believe that glyphosate damages more than 4, genes, leading to many serious diseases (such as Al Harmo's disease, Parkinson's disease, autism, etc. . . )
87% of the American people are worried about the presence of pesticides and pesticides in drinking water. Based on this influence, national sanitation foundation (NSF) introduced the NSF/ANSI 41 certification for domestic drinking water treatment equipment.
NSF/ANSI 41 certification pays attention to 15 emerging pollutants and certifies their effectiveness. The water purifier can pass all 15 pollutant filtration efficiency certifications, which is the best!
most of the water purifiers have not been certified by NSF41, and not all the certified equipments have passed the 15 pollutant filtration efficiency.
