Weedkiller found in granola and crackers, internal FDA emails show

uh huh

uh huh

The feds busted him already. He doesn’t practice anymore.
He makes a lot more money off his scam site.

That is an interesting claim. Care to demonstrate it as you are into peer reviewed material and all. Would you have us believe he lost his federal license maybe ?

I didn’t say he lost anything, other than integrity.
He outlines on his own site that he no longer practices.
The link is very close to the shopping cart button.

What you said, was:[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] 'The feds busted him already.'
I asked you to show evidence of your claim.

Quackwatch is a good resource. With working references.

icmag won't even let me type the word ******* (m-e-r-c-o-l-a).
Even the bot knows better.

After he got in trouble with the feds for making false claims (2005, 2006, 2011), the FTC stepped in (2016) when he claimed the tanning devices he was selling "would enable consumers to slash their risk of cancer and improve the clarity, tone and texture of their skin, giving them a more youthful appearance."

Doc had to pay out cover 5 million for fucking people over like that (U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois).

He is arguably more dangerous to humans than Monsanto.

You are the one who told a fellow poster to bring out peer reviewed information or not to bother.
You were repeatedly asked to provide documentation to your claims.
You can't seem to deliver that which you have demanded of others.

 

[redheadfreakin]

Lol c’mon, court documents aren’t peer reviewed.
You know that, right?
Let me google that for you...
Government web site good enough?

Glyphosate is harmless. If it's on plants, they're dead. Why are dead plants being harvested? It it touches soil it's inert.

Glyphosate is used as a dessicant on crops like wheat. It's sprayed right before harvest too so it's use is particularly nasty.

According to the FDA he is still a Doctor.

Still a crook, too. Your boy is a crook.
No one said he wasn't a doctor.
He doesn't practice because the scam money is too good.
Buy a board membership here and there. He knows his game real well.

You sir, are an idiot who makes unfounded claims and when called out on it resort to ad hominem attacks.

What is unfounded? Your boy M-e-r-c-o-l-a is a proven crook.
You don't believe the court documents?
What else do you need me to google for you?
You call me an idiot but accuse me of ad hominem?

Well back in the news....seems Weedkiller found in granola and crackers, internal FDA emails show. Scary and I'm sure 'they' knew about it prior.

Others out there that are not main stream healthcare practitioners are saying similar - pesticides, GMO is causing health disturbances in people. Call it illness, syndromes, it's affecting people. Doesn't have to be Merc.....many other physicians, dietitians, wellness experts are wary of SAD (Standard American Diet) not only for fats and sugars, but what's in our food.

So, I try to stay away from grains, grow my own veggies, go to growers markets and incorporate Paleo/Mediterranean to limit 'weedkiller' herbicides in food. After reading he OP, it'll hopefully steer others to stay away or limit empty calorie foods- crackers, granola, probably pasta, breads, etc.

Yeah definitely, if you don't like eating glyphosate stay away from processed foods like bread, donuts, cookies, crackers, cereal,etc. The huge majority of it ends up in those foods.

As if you were skilled at the use of google or what ?

Never seen harsh words change much for the better in life, but I have felt love and care melt my own heart. A gift from Neil Young:
"Change Your Mind"

When you get weak,
and you need to test your will
When life's complete,
but there's something
missing still
Distracting you from this
must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch
can change your mind
Don't let another day go by
without the magic touch

Distracting you
(change your mind)
Supporting you
(change your mind)
Embracing you
(change your mind)
Convincing you
(change your mind)

When you're confused and
the world has got you down
When you feel used and
you just can't play the clown
Protecting you from this
must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch
can change your mind
Don't let another day go by
without the magic touch

Protecting you
(change your mind)
Restoring you
(change your mind)
Revealing you
(change your mind)
Soothing you
(change your mind)

You hear the sound,
you wait around
and get the word
You see the picture
changing everything
you've heard
Destroying you with this
must be the one you love
Must be the one
whose magic touch
can change your mind
Don't let another day go by
without the magic touch

Destroying you
(change your mind)
Embracing you
(change your mind)
Protecting you
(change your mind)
Confining you
(change your mind)
Distracting you
(change your mind)
Supporting you
(change your mind)
Distorting you
(change your mind)
Controlling you
(change your mind)
Change your mind
(change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind
(change your mind)
Change your mind
(change your mind)

The morning comes
and there's an odor in the room
The scent of love,
more than a million roses bloom
Embracing you with this
must be the one you love
Must be the one
whose magic touch
can change your mind
Don't let another day go by
without the magic touch

Embracing you
(change your mind)
Concealing you
(change your mind)
Protecting you
(change your mind)
Revealing you
(change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind
(change your mind)
Change your mind
(change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind
(change your mind)
Change your mind
(change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind
Change your mind
Change your mind, change your mind
Change your mind
Change your mind, change your mind
Change your mind, change your mind

Weedkiller products more toxic than their active ingredient, tests show

Weedkiller products more toxic than their active ingredient, tests show

After more than 40 years of widespread use, new scientific tests show formulated weedkillers have higher rates of toxicity to human cells

US government researchers have uncovered evidence that some popular weedkilling products, like Monsanto’s widely-used Roundup, are potentially more toxic to human cells than their active ingredient is by itself.
These “formulated” weedkillers are commonly used in agriculture, leaving residues in food and water, as well as public spaces such as golf courses, parks and children’s playgrounds.
The tests are part of the US National Toxicology Program’s (NTP) first-ever examination of herbicide formulations made with the active ingredient glyphosate, but that also include other chemicals. While regulators have previously required extensive testing of glyphosate in isolation, government scientists have not fully examined the toxicity of the more complex products sold to consumers, farmers and others.

Monsanto introduced its glyphosate-based Roundup brand in 1974. But it is only now, after more than 40 years of widespread use, that the government is investigating the toxicity of “glyphosate-based herbicides” on human cells.
The NTP tests were requested by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) after the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) in 2015 classified glyphosate as a probable human carcinogen. The IARC also highlighted concerns about formulations which combine glyphosate with other ingredients to enhance weed killing effectiveness. Monsanto and rivals sell hundreds of these products around the world in a market valued at roughly $9bn.


Mike DeVito, acting chief of the National Toxicology Program Laboratory, told the Guardian the agency’s work is ongoing but its early findings are clear on one key point. “We see the formulations are much more toxic. The formulations were killing the cells. The glyphosate really didn’t do it,” DeVito said.
A summary of the NTP work stated that glyphosate formulations decreased human cell “viability”, disrupting cell membranes. Cell viability was “significantly altered” by the formulations, it stated.

I remember about 30 years ago when they were spraying some insecticide.

Some official who wanted to demonstrate how safe that is, actually drank some.

I think the Monsanto Board of Directors should repeat that feat,

dining on the entire Monsanto product line.
