Dr. Stephanie Seneff, a major researcher and advocate against the use of glyphosate, joins the show to cover all of the shocking health issues that are associated with the use of this dangerous herbicide. Dr. Seneff clearly outlines the mechanisms by which glyphosate is promoting obesity, high blood sugar, diabetes, Crohn’s disease, cancers, food sensitivities and allergies, autoimmune disorders, autism, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and more. There is a clear correlation between in the increase in glyphosate use and the rise of many of these diseases, and Dr. Seneff is here to tell us why.
Glyphosate is one of the most dangerous and prevalent toxins in the US and Canada, and disrupts many important mechanisms in our body, including those that help us detox. If you’re concerned about your exposure to glyphosate and what you can do about it, make sure to tune into this episode!

About Dr. Stephanie Seneff:
Dr. Stephanie Seneff is a Senior Research Scientist at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. She has a BS degree from MIT in biology and MS, EE and PhD degrees from MIT in electrical engineering and computer science.
Her recent interests have focused on the role of toxic chemicals and micronutrient deficiencies in health and disease, with a special emphasis on the pervasive herbicide, glyphosate, and the mineral, sulfur. Since 2008, she has authored over three dozen peer-reviewed journal papers on these topics. She is the author of a book on glyphosate, titled Toxic Legacy: How the Weedkiller Glyphosate Is Destroying Our Health and the Environment, which was released by Chelsea Green publishers on July 1 2021. This book was selected by Kirkus Reviews as one of the best non-fiction books of 2021.

Toxic Legacy: How the Weedkiller Glyphosate is Destroying our Health and The Environment
Glyphosate is the active ingredient in Roundup, the most commonly used weedkiller in the world. Nearly 300 million pounds of glyphosate-based herbicide are sprayed on farms—and food—every year.
Agrichemical companies claim that glyphosate is safe for humans, animals, and the environment. But emerging scientific research on glyphosate’s deadly disruption of the gut microbiome, its crippling effect on protein synthesis, and its impact on the body’s ability to use and transport sulfur—not to mention several landmark legal cases— tells a very different story.
In Toxic Legacy, MIT senior research scientist Stephanie Seneff, PhD presents stunning evidence based on countless published, peer-reviewed studies that glyphosate plays a major role in skyrocketing rates of chronic diseases, including cancer, gut dysbiosis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, autism, infertility, and more. Dr. Seneff describes glyphosate’s unique mechanism of toxicity that slowly erodes human health over time, as well as its impact on soil, ecosystems, and the nutritional quality of the nation’s food supply.
As Rachel Carson did with DDT in the 1960’s, Stephanie Seneff sounds the alarm on glyphosate, giving you essential information to protect your health, your family’s health, and the planet on which we all depend.
