Are you using almond butter, almond milk, or almond flour as a household staple? We don’t want to burst your bubble, but in this episode we discuss concerns with glyphosate and almonds as over 85% of almonds are treated with this chemical. Go down the rabbit hole with us as we discuss glyphosate, oxalates, the environmental impact of almonds, and so much more.    In today’s episode we will cover our honest take on almonds and how we plan to make shifts in our households as well as covering concepts of oxalates and anti-nutrients, if blanching matters and some potentially better alternatives.    Also in this episode:  LIVE Beat the Bloat Program - Starts 4/10  Trust Your Gut @ Meridian Buda 4/24 Episode 385 Reducing Exposure and Impact of Glyphosate Naturally Nourished Episode 240 Is Your Wine More Toxic Than You Think Almonds and GlyphosateThe Detox Project GMO Free USA MALK *note: upon our review, MALK is now fully organic Jovial FOND Bone Broth use code ALIMILLERRD What About Oxalates?OsteoFactors Vitamin D Balanced Blend Naturally Nourished Episode 345 Bone Health & Calcium Myths Environmental Impact Swap OutsSiete Cassava Tortillas Heirloom Corn Masa Organic Blanched Almond Flour Simple Mills Seed Crackers Lark Ellen Farm Sprouted Trail Mix Organic Almond Butter Naturally Nourished Episode 350 What the BLEEP is Going on in Our Food System   Sponsors for this episode: This episode is sponsored by Dry Farm Wines.

an almond deep dive. In this episode, we will cover how almonds have blown up in the health food space.
