Here in the U.S., the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will be conducting a registration review of glyphosate, or Roundup®. Moms Across America and Thinking Moms’ Revolution met with EPA officials (after 10,000 Moms called in demanding a meeting) to ask that Roundup® be recalled. Moms provided EPA with test results recording unsafe levels of glyphosate residues in drinking water, breast milk and children’s urine. A number of Moms testified regarding autism, leaky gut syndrome and celiac disease, and their switch to organic diets that improved or cured the medical condition of their children. A recent article in the independent journal Entropy by Dr. Stephanie Seneff of MIT argues that glyphosate residues “enhance damaging effects of food-borne chemical residues and toxins in the environment to disrupt normal body functions and induce disease.” Dr. Seneff writes that glyphosate is possibly the most important factor in development of chronic diseases in Western(ized) societies. These chronic afflictions included autism, multiple sclerosis, allergies, colitis, Crohn’s disease, cancer, and obesity, among others. At this point we are all probably contaminated by glyphosate residues regardless of our diet. This is regarding Monsanto and its product Roundup that is being used in Genetically Modified crops which counts for an estimated 80% of food crops in North America. PLEASE CHOOSE NON GMO PRODUCTS, LIMIT PROCESSED PREPACKAGED FOOD. CHOOSE ORGANIC AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
