Do You Have a Gluten Program or a Glyphosate Problem?
Estimated prevalence of non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) varies between 1% & 13% of the population, & as such may be higher than the prevalence of celiac disease.
About 280 million pounds of glyphosate are applied to an average of 298 million acres of crop land annually.
Between 1996 - 2011, the widespread use of Roundup Ready GMO crops increased herbicide use in the U.S. by 527 million pounds—even though Monsanto claimed its GMO crops would reduce pesticide & herbicide use.
Monsanto has falsified data on Roundup's safety, & marketed it to parks departments & consumers as “environmentally friendly" & “biodegradable, to encourage its use it on roadsides, playgrounds, golf courses, schoolyards, lawns & home gardens. A French court ruled those marketing claims amounted to false advertising.
In the nearly 20 years of intensifying exposure, scientists have been documenting the health consequences of Roundup & glyphosate in our food, in the water we drink, in the air we breathe and where our children play.
They've found that people who are sick have higher levels of glyphosate in their bodies than healthy people.
They've also found the following health problems which they attribute to exposure to Roundup and/or glyphosate:
🔸ADHD
🔸Alzheimers disease
🔸Birth defects
🔸Autism
🔸Cancer- all types
🔸Celiac disease & Gluten intolerance
🔸Depression
🔸Fatty liver disease
🔸Hypothyroidism
& many more
There is some exceptional research produced from senior MIT researcher Stephanie Seneff who has lecture videos linking glyphosate to many diseases, especially neurological ones. Her data shows on Glyphosate impairs the shikimate pathway which is a detoxification enzyme within the liver.
This pathway helps supply us with the essential aromatic amino acids, tryptophan, tyrosine, and phenylalanine. Methionine, an essential sulfur-containing amino acid, & glycine, are also negatively impacted by glyphosate.
Furthermore, many other biologically active molecules, including serotonin, melatonin, melanin, epinephrine, dopamine, thyroid hormone, folate, coenzyme Q10, vitamin K, and vitamin E, depend on the shikimate pathway metabolites as precursors.
