A Weed Killer Is Increasingly Showing Up in People
 
The latest study to look at the long-term effects of Roundup, a popular weed killer developed by Monsanto in the 1970s, raises questions about the herbicide's possible contributions to poor health in certain communities.

The study, published Tuesday in JAMA, tracked people over the age of 50 in southern California from 1993-1996 to 2014-2016, with researchers periodically collecting urine samples during that time.

Researchers led by Paul Mills, professor of family medicine and public health at the University of California San Diego, found that the percentage of people who tested positive for a chemical called glyphosate, which is the active ingredient in the herbicide Roundup, shot up by 500% in that time period. The levels of glyphosate also spiked by 1208% during that time.

I never use that shit and avoid all pesticides on my lawn. I just pull the weeds out before I mow and throw it all into compost.

Monsanto is pure evil company, worthy of at least 1% hate that libbies show towards Donald. And 1% of Donald hate is A LOT. Lol

What you don't use the new Internet ready solar powered electric smart I-mower?

But I guess whatever you're doing is so much more modern and better than the way I used to have to mow my lawn.

Here's a photo of me cutting the grass back in the day...

Of course it's showing up in our body's since most of the food everyone eats is processed food containing SOY and SOY BY-Products from a genetically altered soybean that it will not kill.

A Little to much 'Round-Up' in your diet keeping you up at night ?

We learned in elementary school that our food supply is being poisoned and it takes about 60 years to develop cancer from it.

It?s actually glyophosphate in addition to an inert or non active ingredient. I also believe, and don?t quote me on this, but monsanto is owned by bayer, my favorite aspirin.
