New Study Finds Links Between RoundUp (Glyphosate) Herbicide and Fetal Defects

這項研究的令人煩擾結果,只會增加越來越多的證據表明草甘膦與許多健康問題有關 - 包括癌症、消化問題和減低生育能力。
The troubling results of this study only add to the growing body of evidence that has linked glyphosate to a host of health problems — including cancer, digestive problems, and reduced fertility.

BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA – A new study conducted by Argentinian researchers has found that glyphosate – the controversial herbicide marketed by Monsanto (now Bayer) as RoundUp – causes significant damage to pregnant lab rats and their fetuses at relatively low doses. The study, published in Archives of Toxicology, found that not only was the female fertility of pregnant rats impaired, but fetal growth was retarded and malformations were detected in their second-generation offspring.
Researchers tested the glyphosate-based chemical in pregnant female rats at two different doses. The higher dose (200 mg glyphosate per kg of bodyweight per day) was chosen based on the no-observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for maternal toxicity of 1000 mg/kg bw/day promoted by the agrochemical industry as safe for mothers and fetuses.
The lower dose, in contrast, was only 2 mg/kg bw/day and was 1 mg higher than the reference dose set for glyphosate by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. That EPA-approved reference dose is the level that the government claims is safe to ingest on a daily basis over one’s lifetime. However, the researchers asserted that the 2 mg level in the lower dose tested is consistent with glyphosate residue on soybeans and is in keeping with the level of glyphosate detected throughout Argentina.
