that it is used, but the rest of the story is false.

The article is based on shaky theories and makes false assumptions.

This particular product breaks down within24 hours of use and becomes inert and harmless.

Would I recommend drinking the stuff? Hell no. But is it safe to use on our wheat/barley. I would say yes.

The people behind this website believe that anything manmade is ohmygod bad and will kill you. Everything MUST be natural and from the earth otherwise it is bad.

This same website claims that GMO wheat is bad for you and is everywhere.

However that is patently false as there is no GMO wheat legal or used anywhere.
