Study Title:

Comments on "Quantifiable urine glyphosate levels detected in 99% of the French population, with higher values in men, in younger people, and in farmers".

Study Abstract

Grau et al. reported quantifiable levels of glyphosate in 99.8% of urine samples collected in France between 2018 and 2020. Conclusions about these data rest on the reliability of the analytical method and the ability to put the data into the context of safety standards. Rather than demonstrating evidence of a health concern for the French population, data from the study confirm that human exposures to glyphosate are well below safety thresholds established by regulatory authorities in Europe.
