I looked up round up as it is the only pesticide I bought and used myself other than raid for ants...
The mechanisms underlying Roundup(®)-induced neurotoxicity also involve the activation of CaMKII and ERK. Moreover, acute exposure to Roundup(®) increased (3)H-glutamate released into the synaptic cleft, decreased GSH content and increased the lipoperoxidation, characterizing excitotoxicity and oxidative damage. We also observed that both acute and chronic exposure to Roundup(®) decreased (3)H-glutamate uptake and metabolism, while induced (45)Ca(2+) uptake and (14)C-MeAIB accumulation in immature rat hippocampus. Taken together, these results demonstrated that Roundup(®) might lead to excessive extracellular glutamate levels and consequently to glutamate excitotoxicity and oxidative stress in rat hippocampus.

round up can increase the glutamate in brains... but there is calcium again...
I do not go around breathing round up but I have a keen perception of persiticides now or did before I started wearing a mask in all stores. Stores are using pesticides that I know for sure. I could go on and look up all other things that bother me like perfume and cleaners and I may one day. I am interested in the calcium pyruvate I have only seen comment from one person who takes this one
http://www.nutricology.com/calcium-pyruvate-90-vegetarian-caps stating it helped..
I don't like products that say they contain something but don't give the amounts.
Serving Size 2 capsules
Servings per container 45
Amount per serving:
Calcium (as Calcium Pyruvate) 280 mg
Pyruvate 1.22 g
Other ingredients: Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, L-leucine.
no amount for L-leucine...
Do any other people take this form of calcium if so can you recommend a brand that has all ingedients and amounts listed.
