Your Food, Thoroughly Poisoned
Glyphosate Ruining Your Gut and
Triggering Autoimmune Diseases
What use is any government that allows its citizens
to be poisoned by megarich private corporations?
by Dr. Jill Carnahan
Glyphosate
is the active ingredient in the popular herbicide, Roundup. Glyphosate
toxicity is a big deal and what you don’t know just might kill you! Many
people routinely spray their lawns with this chemical totally unaware of the
toxicity. In the United States, farmers are applying ever increasing
amounts to their crops before harvest. According the the World Health Organization,
glyphosate is now declared a “probable
carcinogen” which means it may cause cancer.
The
industry still asserts that it is totally safe for humans, however, one only
needs to look at the data to know that is not true. Ignorance may be bliss but
I believe we may be on the verge of one of the most toxic man made
environmental disasters in history… and unfortunately this chemical is
persistent in both the environment and the human body and it is not easy to
clean up. France’s highest court found Monsanto guilty of lying as far back as
2008 about the toxicity of its popular weedkiller, Roundup. “The court confirmed an earlier
judgment that Monsanto had falsely advertised its herbicide as “biodegradable”
and claimed it “left the soil clean” (Read more here)
According to an Article in Nature published March 24, 2015:
Glyphosate
is the world’s most widely produced herbicide, by volume. It is used
extensively in agriculture and is also found in garden products in many
countries. The chemical is an ingredient in Monsanto’s weedkiller product
Roundup, and glyphosate has become more popular with the increasing market
share of crops that are genetically engineered to be tolerant to the herbicide.
California
recently became the first state to issue plans to list glyphosate as a chemical
known to cause cancer according to EcoWatch. This is big news and we
need to pay attention. The use of glyphosate has nearly doubled from 95
million pounds in 2001 to nearly 185million pounds in 2007, according to the
latest released report form the EPA and who knows how
much it’s increased sine 2007! This is likely in part due to the increase
usage of Round-up Ready genetically modified crops during that same time
period.
Dr. Anthony Samsel and Dr. Stephanie Seneff
state in their recent article published August 2015:
Glyphosate
has a large number of tumorigenic [cancer-causing] effects on biological
systems, including direct damage to DNA in sensitive cells, disruption of
glycine homeostasis, succinate dehydrogenase inhibition, chelation of [minerals
such as]manganese, modification to more carcinogenic molecules, such as
N-nitrosoglyphosate and glyoxylate, disruption of fructose metabolism, etc…
Sadly
epidemiological evidence supports a strong correlation between the dramatic
rise in use of glyphosate on crops and the multitude of cancers reaching
epidemic proportions, such as breast, pancreatic, kidney, thyroid,
bladder, and liver cancers.
In perhaps
the most ironic twist of all, glyphosate has proven highly toxic to the basic
phase one detoxification of the liver, the cytochrome pathways. I find it
incredibly alarming that one of the most toxic chemicals known to mankind also
exerts it’s influence by impairing
human detoxification. Did you get that!? A toxic chemical that
makes is harder to detox… what nonsense!
Here is an
excerpt from Entropy 2013, Glyphosate’s Suppression of Cytochrome P450 enzymes and amino acid
biosynthesis by the gut microbe:
Glyphosate’s
inhibition of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes is an overlooked component of its
toxicity to mammals. CYP enzymes play crucial roles in biology, one of which is
to detoxify xenobiotics. Thus, glyphosate enhances the damaging effects of
other food borne chemical residues and environmental toxins. Negative impact on
the body is insidious and manifests slowly over time as inflammation damages
cellular systems throughout the body.
Glyphosate may trigger autoimmunity,
such as celiac disease by the following mechanisms:
- Spraying of wheat before harvest
with glyphosate, a common practice in North America allows for a large
exposure to glyphosate in wheat. - Wheat may be the most common
ingredient in processed foods. - Glyphosate also damages the microvilli in gut reducing ability to
absorb vitamins and minerals - Wheat contains gliadin, which is
difficult for genetically susceptible individuals to break down. - Glyphosate may attach to the
gliadin as a consequence of a chemical interaction between the
chemical make it even harder to break down this large protein
molecule. - It may not be recognized by
the body or able to be broken down, making even more likely to induce an
immunological response in susceptible individuals, contributing to
development of celiac disease
In addition to celiac disease, researchers
now believe that glyphosate may be linked to the following diseases:
1.
Autism
3.
Cancer
4.
Parkinson’s
5.
Alzheimer’s
disease
6.
Inflammatory
bowel diseases (Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis)
7.
Cardiovascular
disease
8.
Depression
9.
Infertility
Glyphosate
is also toxic to our gut microbiome
Glyphosate
is toxic to many of our benetifical gut microbes. It may preferentially kill off
species, like lactobacillus while leaving potential pathogens, like clostridia
to run wild. Glyphosate also chelates essential minerals, such as manganese,
iron, cobalt, molybdenum, and copper so that the gut microbes do not have
access to them. This leads to chronic inflammatory states in the gut as well as increased
intestinal permeability, a mechanism at the core of many chronic illnesses,
including inflammatory bowel disease, depression, and autoimmunity.
If you are eating processed food, you are
eating glyphosate…
Residues of
glyphosate are commonly found in the most common foods in the American Diet,
including
1.
Corn
3.
Sugar
Beets (sugar)
4.
Canola
5.
Cotton
(not food but in clothing, sanitary napkins and many products we use daily)
Nearly one
billion pounds of glyphosate are doused on both conventional and genetically
modified crops world-wide each year but GMO crops receive the largest amounts.
Processed foods undoubtable expose you to this toxic contamination, courtesy of
wheat, corn, soy and the vegetable oil used. And the meats from conventionally
raised animals in confined feed lots are given fed that most likely contains
glyphosate-laden corn and soy.
And
finally… it gets personal
You may know
that I grew up on a farm in Central Illinois. My Dad and brothers still farm corn and
soybeans there and I couldn’t be more proud that they have recently switched
over to non-GMO versions of these crops. My brothers have started a few fields
of organic crops as well. Due to my own history of breast cancer and Crohn’s
disease, I have followed a 100% organic diet for at least the past 10-15 years.
Recently I
realized just how pervasive this glyphosate exposure is in our environment when I sent out
my urine to test my own glyphosate level. I was shocked to get the results back
(below) showing that my level was higher than the “Farmer” study, which tested
farm workers on application day! This made me realize how pervasive this
dangerous chemical is in our environment and how important it is to remain
vigilant to decrease exposure and work to get it banned. I am currently working
hard on detoxing this chemical from my body and will keep you posted when I do
repeat testing.
Dr. Jill glyphosate levels
Ok,
so what can I do about it?!
The most
important thing to realize is that you cannot wash glyphosate off food since it is incorporated into each cell of
plant.
Here are some tips to keep your diet free of
glyphosate:
- Only
way to 100% eliminate from your diet is to avoid conventionally grown and
processed foods - Glyphosate accumulates in animal
tissues, so make sure your meat was not fed GMO grains and your butter and
dairy is organic - Switch over to a 100% organic
diet - Take activated charcoal or
rice bran powder in aiding elimination of organophosphates and glyphosate
after exposure - Maintain adequate mineral status
by taking a multi-mineral supplement that includes trace minerals - Support glutathione production
with N-acetylcysteine, glycine and glutamine or oral liposomal glutathione - Support phase 1 and phase 2 liver
detoxification by avoiding alcohol and taking liver support, like
silymarin, lipoid acid - It is much harder to reverse
damage once it’s done, so best to avoid glyphosate from the
start—especially in children!
So go to it… It’s worth
every penny to grown your own food or buy organic and begin to detox your body
of this dangerous chemical!
