\"pesticides_toxic-263x164<\/a>Published just this month in the\u00a0International Journal of Toxicology<\/em>, the study<\/a>\u00a0\u201cGlyphosate\u00a0Commercial Formulation Causes Cytotoxicity, Oxidative Effects, and Apoptosis on Human Cells: Differences With its Active Ingredient,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0proposes what most of us have already surmised: Glyphosate, the main ingredient in Monsanto\u2019s herbicide du jour \u2013 RoundUp \u2013 is utterly killing us.<\/strong> What\u2019s more \u2013 it kills us in much smaller servings than the Agriculture industry is dishing out in its common GMO and pesticide spraying practices<\/strong>, and it is made stronger by the additional chemicals used in the RoundUp formula.<\/p>\n

\u201cAminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA), and a glyphosate formulation (G formulation) were examined in HepG2 cell line, at dilution levels far below agricultural recommendations\u201d<\/em> and they are causing toxic effects on the human genome. It is the adjuvants in RoundUp working together with the glyphosate which really causes the problem.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe glyphosate formulation studied also triggered two \u2018death proteins\u2019 in human cells known as caspase 3\/7, inducing pathways that activate programmed cell death (apoptosis), a clear sign of significant toxicity.\u201d<\/p>\n

As many scientists have suspected, glyphosate does not reveal its true toxicity alone \u2013 but works in tandem with the other chemicals in RoundUp so that the levels of toxicity on human cells becomes catastrophic.\u00a0\u00a0One plausible cause is that the\u00a0surfactant polyoxyethylene amine\u00a0within Roundup dramatically enhances the absorption of glyphosate into exposed human cells and tissue.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another study<\/a>\u00a0published in November of last year points to adjuvants working with glyphosate to cause a particularly lethal concoction. \u201cEthoxylated adjuvants of glyphosate-based herbicides are active principles of human cell toxicity\u201d<\/em>\u00a0states:<\/p>\n

\u201c. . . Here we demonstrate that all formulations are more toxic than glyphosate, and we separated experimentally three groups of formulations differentially toxic according to their concentrations in\u00a0ethoxylated adjuvants<\/strong>. Among them,\u00a0POE-15 clearly appears to be the most toxic principle against human cells<\/strong>, even if others are not excluded. It begins to be active with negative dose-dependent effects on cellular respiration and membrane integrity\u00a0between 1 and 3ppm [parts per million]<\/strong>, at environmental\/occupational doses.<\/p>\n

We demonstrate in addition that\u00a0POE-15 induces necrosis when its first micellization process occurs<\/strong>, by contrast to glyphosate which is known to promote endocrine disrupting effects after entering cells. Altogether, these results\u00a0challenge the establishment<\/strong>\u00a0of guidance values such as the acceptable daily intake of glyphosate, when these are mostly based on a long term in vivo test of glyphosate alone.\u00a0Since pesticides are always used with adjuvants that could change their toxicity, the necessity to assess their whole formulations as mixtures becomes obvious<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n

Argentina has sued Monsanto<\/a>\u00a0for its toxic, cancer causing chemicals and GMO, but if you want to be able to sue Monsanto for their dastardly deeds,\u00a0you better speak up<\/a>. It is becoming nearly impossible to sue the company in the US, and legal action is just one way of taking down this eugenically motivated monster.<\/p>\n
