Roundup Gave Us Cancer - Dr Mercola

  • More than 800 people with cancer are suing Monsanto, the maker of Roundup, over claims the glyphosate-based herbicide caused non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
  • Decades ago, Monsanto was able to persuade the EPA to change the classification of glyphosate from a Class C Carcinogen (suggestive carcinogenic potential) to Class E, which means there is evidence of non-carcinogenicity in humans
  • New research revealed a strong connection between large-scale Monarch butterfly deaths and glyphosate application.
