16. Gluten Intolerance or Celiac Disease
In studies, fish that were exposed to RoundUp develop serious digestive problems that are similar to what humans with celiac disease experience. There are definite connections between the characteristics of celiac disease and RoundUp. Glyphosate and GM foods are well-known for causing serious imbalances in the gut bacteria.
17. Liver Disease
One study, published in the 2009 journal Toxicology, found that even very low doses of glyphosate can disrupt liver cell function in human beings.
18. Kidney Disease
The recent surge in kidney problems in the US, India, and other countries that use RoundUp Ready on crops might be easily explained by exposure to glyphosate. Although scientists agree that exposure to this herbicide is not the only cause behind this epidemic, however they also agree that it does play a large part in destroying the kidney tissues when it is combined with exposure to hard water and nephrotoxic metals.
19. Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Sometimes called leaky gut syndrome, RoundUp can cause a severe tryptophan deficiency in the body, which can lead to inflammatory bowel disease, which prevent the body from absorbing nutrients in a normal matter.
20. Hypothyroidism
A house to house survey of people living in farming areas in Argentina found that these people had higher rates of cancer as well as higher rates of thyroid issues, in particular, hypothyroidism.
21. Colitis
As we have mentioned, RoundUp and GM foods are well-known for disrupting the entire digestive tract, which leads to numerous digestive problems including colitis.
22. Heart Disease
RoundUp and GM foods disrupt the production and action of enzymes in the body, which causes lysosomal dysfunction. This is one major factor in the development of cardiovascular disease and eventual heart failure.
23. Depression
RoundUp is known to interrupt the production of serotonin in the brain. This is a vital neurotransmitter that regulates our appetite, mood, and sleep pattern. A disruption in serotonin is known to be one of the underlying causes of depression.
24. Diabetes
Studies show that low levels of testosterone leave a person at a higher risk for developing type-2 diabetes. Lab rats that were fed relevant doses of RoundUp over a 4 week period just before puberty reduced their levels of testosterone. This led to the delay in the onset of puberty. This can leave you at a higher risk of developing diabetes.
It’s almost inconceivable that we know about all of these health problems but glyphosate is still used and readily available for sale. Food companies are still pushing their GM foods on the American public, even though most people have made it plain that these are products we don’t want.
