The Test A total of 45 conventional food samples were subjected to the test. Out of the 45 glyphosate was detected in 43 samples. 31 samples of those products that tested positive were above EWG’s Health Benchmark (160 ppb). In addition, 16 samples of organic food were also tested. Glyphosate was detected in 5 samples. Interestingly, as it was expected none of the positive samples were above EWG’s Health Benchmark.
