Summary:
"The Silent Spring of
our
time From an MIT scientist, mounting evidence that the active ingredient in the world's most commonly used
weedkiller
is responsible for debilitating chronic diseases, including cancer, liver disease, and more.
Glyphosate
is the active ingredient in Roundup, the most commonly used
weedkiller
in the world. Nearly 300 million pounds of glyphosate-based herbicide are sprayed on farms-and food-every year. Agrichemical companies claim that
glyphosate
is safe for humans, animals, and the
environment
. But emerging scientific research on
glyphosate
's deadly disruption of the gut microbiome, its crippling effect on protein synthesis, and its impact on the body's ability to use and transport sulfur-not to mention several landmark legal cases- tells a very different story. In
Toxic
Legacy
, MIT senior research scientist Stephanie Seneff, PhD presents stunning evidence based on countless published, peer-reviewed studies that
glyphosate
plays a major role in skyrocketing rates of chronic diseases, including cancer, gut dysbiosis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, autism, infertility, and more. Dr. Seneff describes
glyphosate
's unique mechanism of toxicity that slowly erodes human
health
over time, as well as its impact on soil, ecosystems, and the nutritional quality of the nation's food supply. As Rachel Carson did with DDT in the 1960's, Stephanie Seneff sounds the alarm on
glyphosate
, giving you essential information to protect your
health
, your family's
health
, and the planet on which we all depend."--From publisher.
