Roundup's brilliant solution to the glyphosate controversy: replace it with diquat, a chemical that's only 200x more toxic and banned in the UK, EU, and China! 🧪

Nothing says "food safety" like irreversible kidney damage and destroyed gut bacteria. The EPA remains unbothered. 🤷‍♂️

“The herbicide ingredient used to replace glyphosate in Roundup and other weedkiller products can kill gut bacteria and damage organs in multiple ways, new research shows.

The ingredient, diquat, is widely employed in the US as a weedkiller in vineyards and orchards, and is increasingly sprayed elsewhere as the use of controversial herbicide substances such as glyphosate and paraquat drops in the US.“

Pesticider kan sætte gang i en ond cirkel

Ny forskning kæder pesticider sammen med ændringer i mikrobiomet, som kan udløse Parkinsons sygdom.

The 10 pesticides identified as directly toxic to these neurons included: four insecticides (#dicofol, #endosulfan, #naled, #propargite), three herbicides (#diquat, #endothall, #trifluralin), and three fungicides (#Copper#Sulfate [basic and pentahydrate] and #folpet). Most of the pesticides are still in use today in the United States.

Chemiekeule auf dem Kartoffelacker

Wollen wir wirklich nur normgerechte Kartoffeln essen?

Früher wurden Entlaubungsmittel im Vietnamkrieg eingesetzt. Heute werden sie von den Bauern kurz vor der Ernte auf die Felder gespritzt, um Kartoffeln zu erzeugen, die den Anforderungen des Marktes genügen.
