Glyphosate

A groundbreaking new lab study has delivered alarming news: glyphosate (commonly known as Round-Up), the most widely used herbicide in the world, causes lasting brain inflammation, accelerated Alzheimer’s-like changes, and premature death—even after short-term exposure.

The Study:

In a controlled lab setting, scientists divided mice into three groups:

• No glyphosate exposure
• Low-dose glyphosate
• High-dose glyphosate

For 13 weeks, the mice received daily glyphosate doses. During this time, as well as the following six months, the mice’s brains were monitored.

The Results Were Alarming:

• Significant brain inflammation occurred that damaged the brain.

• Alzheimer’s-like pathology accelerated.

• Mice displayed increased anxiety and died prematurely.

• The brain damage persisted even six months after cessation of the daily glyphosate dosing.

The Bottom Line:

Even brief exposure to glyphosate led to long-lasting, brain pathology.

Glyphosate Is Everywhere

Glyphosate is sprayed on crops worldwide, with 300 million pounds used annually in the U.S. Most Americans are exposed daily through:

• Non-organic Grains: Bread, pasta, cereals, crackers.

• Non-organic Legumes: Lentils, beans, peas.

• Produce: Non-organic fruits and vegetables.

• Corn-based foods: Non-organic corn chips, corn syrup, snacks.

• Non-organic Animal products: Meat, eggs, milk (from animals fed glyphosate-treated feed).

Protect Yourself!

By my reading of the science, the evidence is clear:

Avoid glyphosate exposure.

The simplest and most effective way is to choose organic foods.

Organic standards prohibit glyphosate, protecting your brain, health, and future.
