Exclamation Half of Children May be Autistic by the Year 2025

According to studies at MIT from Glyphosate toxicity resulting from overuse of Monsanto's Roundup herbicide on our food. https://www.anh-usa.org/half-of-all-c...entist-at-mit/




Quote:
Dr. Seneff noted the ubiquity of glyphosate�s use. Because it is used on corn and soy, all soft drinks and candies sweetened with corn syrup and all chips and cereals that contain soy fillers have small amounts of glyphosate in them, as do our beef and poultry since cattle and chicken are fed GMO corn or soy.

Wheat is often sprayed with Roundup just prior to being harvested, which means that all non-organic bread and wheat products would also be sources of glyphosate toxicity.

The amount of glyphosate in each product may not be large, but the cumulative effect (especially with as much processed food as Americans eat) could be devastating.

A recent study shows that pregnant women living near farms where pesticides are applied have a 60% increased risk of children having an autism spectrum disorder.

Other toxic substances may also be autism-inducing. You may recall our story on the CDC whistleblower who revealed the government�s deliberate concealment of the link between the MMR vaccine (for measles, mumps, and rubella) and a sharply increased risk of autism, particularly in African American boys.

Other studies now show a link between children�s exposure to pesticides and autism. Children who live in homes with vinyl floors, which can emit phthalate chemicals, are more likely to have autism.

Children whose mothers smoked were also twice as likely to have autism. Research now acknowledges that environmental contaminants such as PCBs, PBDEs, and mercury can alter brain neuron functioning even before a child is born.

This month, the USDA released a study finding that although there were detectable levels of pesticide residue in more than half of food tested by the agency, 99% of samples taken were found to be within levels the government deems safe, and 40% were found to have no detectable trace of pesticides at all.

The USDA added, however, that due to �cost concerns,� it did not test for residues of glyphosate. Let�s repeat that: they never tested for the active ingredient in the most widely used herbicide in the world. �Cost concerns�?

How absurd�unless they mean it will cost them too much in terms of the special relationship between the USDA and Monsanto.

You may recall the revolving door between Monsanto and the federal government, with agency officials becoming high-paying executives�and vice versa!

Money, power, prestige: it�s all there. Monsanto and the USDA love to scratch each others� backs. Clearly this omission was purposeful.
