Monsanto's Infertility-Linked Roundup in Urine Samples

[Sara S]

Monsanto’s Infertility-Linked Roundup Discovered in All Urine Samples Tested

A recent study* conducted by a German university found very high concentrations of Glyphosate, a carcinogenic chemical found in herbicides like Monsanto’s Roundup, in all urine samples tested. The amount of glyphosate found in the urine was staggering, with each sample containing concentrations at 5 to 20-fold the limit established for drinking water. This is just one more piece of evidence that herbicides are, at the very least, being sprayed out of control.

This news comes only one month after it was found that glyphosate, contained in Monsanto’s Roundup, is contaminating the groundwater in the areas in which it is used. What does this mean? It means that toxic glyphosate is now polluting the world’s drinking water through the widespread contamination of aquifers, wells and springs. The recent reports of glyphosate showing up in all urine samples only enhances these past findings.

Monsanto continues to make the claim that their Roundup products are completely safe for both animals and humans. However many environmentalists, scientists, activists, and even doctors say otherwise. Glyphosate radically affects the metabolism of plants in a negative way. It is a systemic poison preventing the formation of essential amino acids, leading to weakened plants which ultimately die from it.

A formula seems to have been made to not only ruin the agricultural system, but also compromise the health of millions of people worldwide. With the invent of Monsanto’s Roundup Ready crops, resistant superweeds are taking over farmland and public health is being attacked. As it turns out, glyphosate is also leaving behind its residue on Roundup Ready crops, causing further potential concern for public health. Glyphosate is even contributing to escalating rates of mental illness and obesity through the depletion of beneficial gut flora that directly regulates these functions. But it certainly doesn’t stop there....

Could this be about population control?

[Dixon]

Well, of course I hate Monsanto and pollution, etc., and was appropriately horrified until your last line: "Could this be about population control?" Then I thought "Hey, there's a silver lining here!" While I think it unlikely that Monsanto's depredations are motivated by anything so enlightened as concern about overpopulation, it sure would be nice if most of the population became infertile! Then we could get this rapacious species down to a sustainable population. Manifestly, we can't depend on the intelligence and foresight of most folks to refrain from reproducing at above the replacement rate (1 child per parent); most people seem to think they have a god-given right to reproduce unrestrainedly. So it may be that accidental infertility for large numbers of people is our only chance to avoid ever more dire global consequences of the stupidity, self-centeredness, and irresponsibility that are choking Mother Earth with more humans than she can support.
