Study shows Roundup causes breast cancer
This study demonstrates that glyphosate (Roundup) causes breast cancer in very low concentrations.
Besides using the product ourselves, it's in our food supply and ground water. As I understand it, it's supposed to get broken down by bacteria in the soil, but apparently some still gets to the ground water...
With Roundup Ready GMO crops large amounts are sprayed directly onto the plants, mostly corn and soy, and go into the food supply -- either as grain products or fed to livestock and dairy cattle.
