Conventional Food is Sprayed with Monsanto’s Carcinogenic Chemicals Just 3 Days Before Harvest http://b4in.org/pLC0
How long should it take for a carcinogenic chemical to dissipate, water-down, or disappear before you consume the food it is sprayed on?
There is no definitive scientific test proving that Monsanto’s Roundup chemicals break down after being sprayed on your food. Dr. Stepahnie Seneff summarizes the two key problems caused by glyphosate in the diet in this way:
Nutritional deficiencies
Systemic toxicity
According to a ‘pre-harvest guide’ Monsanto’s Roundup should be sprayed on food just three days before harvesting. The Monsanto document states:
“Spraying a RoundUp brand agricultural herbicide allows for uniform crop maturity which gives you the option to straight cut harvest.”
Monsanto also claims that aerial applications can be made without drift onto unwanted areas. Say what??? Almost all research on the toxicity and environmental fate of herbicides is conducted on herbicide ‘active ingredients’ only and in complete isolation. In fact:
“Aerial applications are typically made by helicopter from 60-80 feet above the target area. Because of the method of application and the chemical behavior of the mixtures used, movement of herbicides, surfactants and inert ingredients off target is both inevitable and extensive.”

Vote for, and get other people to vote for, politicians that can resist the bribes from Monsanto and other similar companies.
ReplyDeleteThe surfactants are often at least as dangerous as the herbicides. Glyphosate is implicated with many organ (Kidney, liver) failures, but it is hard to prove. That's where they bank on. As soon as there is evidence surfacing, they change to different products and everybody is happy (except those whose health is affected) and the cycle starts again.
