S1E17 Glyphosate's Toxic Legacy With Dr. Stephanie Seneff
Episode description
In this episode learn all about the toxic weedkiller Glyphosate with the person who literally wrote the book on it. Dr. Stephanie Seneff is a senior research scientist with MIT and has been involved with studying Glyphosate for many years. In fact, a long line of people commended her work, including Robert F. Kennedy who relied on her research to prosecute Monsanto Company, the maker of Glyphosate. Dr. Seneff's book is "Toxic Legacy, How the Weedkiller Glyphosate is Destroying Our Health and the Environment."
In this episode Dr. Seneff provides the link between Glyphosate usage since 1974 and the rise in chronic illness. Glyphosate is linked to cancer, autoimmune diseases like Autism, and Alzheimer's, mental disease, reproductive disorders, gluten intolerance, IBS, fatty liver disease, and more. Yet, how? All of these diseases are so different? They all begin with gut dysbiosis, but today learn from Dr. Seneff how Glyphosate gets into our cell's mitochondria and the role deuterium plays.
So what can we do? Dr. Seneff has some ideas:
1. Buy from local organic farmers to support and advocate for organic farming subsidies.
2. Eat organic to limit your exposure to glyphosate.
3. Eat foods rich in sulphur and taurine. Eat cruciferous vegetables, grass-fed meat, fermented foods and organic eggs.
4. Get plenty of sunlight.
Glyphosate accumulates in our bodies, but there's hope in ridding it by taking action.
