The Aftermath of Roundup and Pesticides


Listen Later

In this episode, Jeffrey talks in front of a live audience about the true aftermath of spraying billions of pounds of Roundup on farm fields every year.

Roundup as an herbicide:

  • Chelates trace minerals
  • Dismantles plant defenses
  • Destroys beneficial microorganisms
  • Promotes pathogenic organisms

Glyphosate, the chief poison in Roundup, has many deleterious biological effects:

  • Depletes important minerals
  • As an antibiotic: disrupts gut bacteria -> Studies with chickens, cows and pigs show death of beneficial bacteria and overgrowth of pathogens in gut
  • Blocks the Shikamate pathway
  • Damages microvilli and suppresses digestive enzymes

The most important thing you can do to avoid the probable damage from eatiing food laced with glyphosate is to eat organic.
