Yeah both glyphosate.

But the doctor in the OP explicitly pointed out that they had increased levels of glyphosate in their blood:

> He also warned that some patients' blood work showed elevated levels for compounds found in herbicides such as glyphosate, and said more testing should be done to rule out environmental toxins, including the neurotoxin BMAA, which is produced by blue-green algae.

Just because glyphosate is everywhere doesn't mean it can't be concentrated in a particular place.

To be clear I'm not taking a stand for the glyphosate argument at all. I just don't think your line of reasoning is a fair counterargument in this case
