You may not get sick or die, but you may not like the "legacy" you leave behind with your kids and grandkids. Can you image how you'd feel if you knew things you did, or were done to you, caused your granddaughter to die of cancer?
I won't be surprised if it turns out to cause cancer. As a PP mentioned, anyone should reasonably assume protective equipment should be used when dealing with it or any other herbicide or pesticide. However, it was a jury that rendered the verdict; not a judge.
Caffeine is a natural pesticide, should I wear my PPE when drinking coffee or tea?
It depends on the dose. The dose makes the poison

One of the things with this study is the dosage rates. Female rats (F0 generation) transiently exposed (25 mg/kg body weight glyphosate daily) . To get that dosage in humans you would have to eat a lot foods that contain a ton of glyphosate. Quaker Oats seems to the the highest I could find. 2,837 ppb which is 2.837 mg/kg, meaning you would have to eat 10 bowls of cereal daily to get to the levels they tested. European limits are 0.3 mg/kg/bw/daily, which means you are eating 9.5 times their allowable limit with one bowl. Conflicting information abound with this one.
There is so much conflicting information on Glyphosate.

Who knows what it does or does not do.
I think it would be best for everyone to start a garden and start to grow more of their own food. That way you know where it is coming from.
