The hidden danger on golf courses

It’s not your swing that’s harming your health.

Good morning friends,

Golf might seem like a peaceful, healthy hobby, but there’s a hidden risk that most players don’t even realise.

Many golf courses are heavily treated with glyphosate,

a common herbicide used to keep the greens looking flawless.

The issue is that glyphosate can interfere with your body on a cellular level.

What it does to your body
Glyphosate mimics an amino acid called glycine, which disrupts vital biological functions.
Research has linked exposure to:

• Chronic inflammation
• Connective tissue problems
• And emerging conditions like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome

How to protect yourself
If you love your weekend rounds, here are simple ways to minimise exposure:

• Wash thoroughly after playing
• Spend less time on recently treated areas
• Support your detox pathways with binders, antioxidants, and hydration

The takeaway
Golf might be great for your mind, but your body still needs protection.

If you play often, make sure you are prioritising your detoxification as much as your swing.
