Monsanto’s Roundup Linked to Autism, Parkinson’s, and Cancer
Submitted by

Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, is the most
popular herbicide used worldwide. Monsanto asserts it is not
toxic to humans, but here a new study proves otherwise.
Residue of Roundup are found in the main foods of the Western
diet, composed primarily of sugar, corn, soy and wheat.
Glyphosate inhibit necessary key enzymes in our bodies which
create a toxic effect on beneficial insects, animals and people.
These enzymes play crucial roles in biology, one of which is to
detoxify xenobiotics, a chemical which is found in
an organism but is not normally produced or expected to be
present.
Stephanie Seneff , a Senior Research Scientist at the MIT
Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory who
uncovered the results of this study, explains the documented
effects of glyphosate and its ability to induce disease. And it
also shows that glyphosate is the “textbook example” of the
disruption of homeostasis (the imbalance of cell regulation
which can lead to the cause of many diseases) by environmental
toxin such as found with Roundup.
This new study shows that Roundup enhances the damaging
effects of other food borne chemical residues and
environmental toxins. Far-reaching health implications of this
toxic chemical significantly impact the body due to its use in
farming and other areas where food may grow. And what this new
study has uncovered is the effects of Roundup are insidiously
manifesting slowly over time as inflammation damages many
different cellular systems throughout the body.
Consequences with most of the diseases and conditions associated
with a Western diet include gastrointestinal disorders, obesity,
diabetes, heart disease, depression, autism, infertility, cancer
and Alzheimer’s disease all stem from even the smallest trace
amounts of Roundup that is found in theses foods we eat. And
the FDA allows
trace amounts of glyphosate in the foods that we buy and eat.
When we take into account of the significant increase in
Autism, something very profound emerges.
Monsanto has argued that glyphosate is harmless to humans
because we don’t have the shikimate pathway, which is
necessary for amino acid biosynthesis. However, our
gut bacteria do have this pathway. We depend upon
them to supply us with essential amino acids (among many
other things like Tryptophan, serotonin, melatonin,
Tyrosine, dopamine, adrenaline and melanin. When these amino
acids are out of balance, as have been found when amounts of
Roundup are discovered in the blood of Autistic children, a
direct correlation begins unfolding.
Some Biomarkers for Autism are:
Above we see two or more coexisting medical conditions or
diseases that directly contribute to Autism:
disrupted gut bacteria and
impaired homeostasis of sulfur metabolites (especially
sulfate). Two or more of these biomarkers found is almost
certain that a child will have Autism. When we factor in
that glyphosate is found in mother’s breast milk, there is
no doubt of the directly correlation between Roundup and the
diseases that are skyrocketing in our society now.
Interesting and quite concerning are the almost identical
cofactors that were found to cause Autism, similarly which
arose from the findings of Roundup found in people with
cancer and a host of other diseases as well.
This new study has shown just how urgent the need is for
Roundup to be removed from the marketplace before its
allowed to continue to wreak even more havoc on the health
of people around the world.
