The Aftermath of Roundup and Pesticides - Episode 169
Published on July 31, 2023
In this episode, Jeffrey talks in front of a live audience about the 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
- Disrupts gut bacteria
- Blocks the shikamate pathway used by bacteria, fungi, algae and plants
- Damages microvilli and suppresses digestive enzymes.
Jeffrey encourages eating organic to avoid the probable damage from eatiing food laced with glyphosate.
