Groundbreaking Glyphosate-Microbiome Study

Glyphosate and the glyphosate-based herbicide Roundup disrupt the gut microbiome by the same mechanism by which the chemical acts as a weedkiller, and these effects happen even at low doses that regulators claim to be safe, a newly published study has found. The new study was conducted by an international team of scientists based in … Read more
