Mounting evidence on toxicity of Roundup
Research from France has confirmed previous studies that Monsanto's Roundup, the most commonly used herbicide in the world, is much more toxic that Monsanto admits.
Differential Effects of Glyphosate
and Roundup on Human Placental Cells and Aromatase
Research from France has confirmed
previous studies that Monsanto's Roundup, the most commonly used
herbicide in the world, is much more toxic that Monsanto admits. The
study indicates that at levels 100 times lower than the recommended use
in agriculture, Roundup herbicide causes reproductive damages and
endocrine disruption.
Conclusion of research: ‘The
dilution of glyphosate in Roundup formulation may multiply its
endocrine effect. Roundup may be thus considered as a potential
endocrine disruptor. Moreover, at higher doses still below the
classical agricultural dilutions, its toxicity on placental cells could
induce some reproduction problems.’
