Resilience Reviles Roundup

This may be the most important video we can watch for our health!!!

Having an everything but blood sister diagnosed with hormone dependent Breast cancer just last month this is clearly a topic that needs to be addressed at the individual as well as federal level- We need to grow our own food!!!

A super quick summary below- but don’t think you already know what they are going to say.  This MIT professor is awesome…

Glyphosate was “supposed” to be harmless to humans and animals—the perfect weed killer. Now a groundbreaking article just published in the journal Entropy points to Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide, and more specifically its active ingredient glyphosate, as devastating—possibly “the most important factor in the development of multiple chronic diseases and conditions that have become prevalent in Westernized societies.”

That’s right. The herbicide sprayed on most of the world’s genetically engineered crops—and which gets soaked into the food portion—is now linked to “autism … gastrointestinal issues such as inflammatory bowel disease, chronic diarrhea, colitis and Crohn’s disease, obesitycardiovascular disease, depression, cancer, cachexia, Alzheimer’s diseaseParkinson’s diseasemultiple sclerosis, and ALS, among others.”
