Upon what evidence are you basing your statement? Point me to studies
that have been conducted about ingestion of glyphosates?

Why would pharmas generally be interested in this? Monsanto has been
the largest producer and it was very recently bought out by Bayer, but
that is the crop science division of Bayer.
