Monsanto Weed Killer Roundup Faces New Doubts on Safety in Unsealed Documents
I&#x27;ve been researching this.<p>1.  Glyphosate (roundup) use is two orders of magnitude higher than originally approved.<p>2.  Due to the emergence of glyphosate-resistant weeds, the dosage has been increased substantially.<p>3.  It is now also usually combined with other compounds to increase effectiveness, which affects how it breaks down and affects both the food and environment.<p>4. It is now also used for &#x27;green burndown&#x27;. To help dessicate the crop. AKA they use it to kills crops to speed harvest, resulting in significantly elevated levels in your food.<p>Start with the wikipedia page:  <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Glyphosate" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Glyphosate</a><p>Go on to a letter of concern published in the journal of Environmental Health signed by 14 experts in the field. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov&#x2F;pubmed&#x2F;26883814" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov&#x2F;pubmed&#x2F;26883814</a><p>Realize that little to gain from raising these concerns, while there are many wealthy parties with vested interests in not finding these results.  There&#x27;s little funding behind this.  Governing bodies (e.g. in Germany) are still relying on findings from labs with clear conflicts of interest.
