Making the Connection: How Herbicide Use Correlates to Modern Disease

Show Topic: Making the Connection: How Herbicide Use Correlates to Modern Disease

Discussion on Dr. Seneff’s research on correlations between the widely-used herbicide chemical “glyphosate”  using in the garden and food-crop herbicide “Roundup” - now believed linked to many modern-day diseases including Non-Hodgkins lymphoma - and diseases ranging from auto-immune to MS to Cancer.  T

Recent litigation in the US against Monsanto, the maker of the Roundup herbicide (Bayer Corp. now owns Monsanto), has supported Dr. Seneff’s theories about a causal link.

Cases in the Courts:

The first case of its kind against the herbicide maker, Monsanto, the jury awarded the dying father, Dewayne Johnson, a groundskeeper who routinely used the herbicide and suffering with Non-Hodkins lymphoma, was awarded over $200 million, mostly in punitive damages against the herbicide maker. Punitive damages are not routinely awarded, but doing so sends a powerful message when a jury finds significant wrongdoing by the manufacturer. As a result of the vast award, Monsanto is appealing the verdict.

Other Correlations:

Dr. Seneff also identifies correlations with toxic algae blooms to the wide-spread use of glyphosate - notably, on the sugarcane fields in Florida. Her new book, Toxic Legacy - outlines the insidious nature of the toxic herbicide glyphosate and its effect on humans and the environment.

Dr. Seneff is senior research scientist at MIT - working at the intersection of human biophysics and data analysis. Co-authoring numerous white-papers, to numerous testimonies and lectures - including data analysis on the processes involved in identifying and determining causal events and methods of prevention.
