The Dangers of Glyphosate, Covid-19 Update

Glyphosate  is a broad-spectrum herbicide used to destroy unwanted plants like weeds. One of the main reasons for its development is to kill weeds and grasses that compete with crops. It was discovered by Monsanto chemist John E. Franz in 1970. In the mid 1970’s Monsanto made glyphosate commercially available to the public with the product known as Round-up.  Round-up and other similar products containing glyphosate are used by the general public to kill weeds in the cracks of their sidewalks, curbs, driveways and gardens.

Glyphosate has been shown to cause cancer and other health problems.  In 2018, Monsanto lost a lawsuit to a farmer who developed non-hodgkin’s lymphoma from using glyphosate.  The farmer was awarded 289 million dollars.  Since that case,  a class action law suit has been filed against Monsanto. In 2020, Monsanto decided to pay 20 billion dollars to settle outstanding lawsuits.

A major environmental concern is that glyphosate when sprayed around our homes is that the chemical can enter our ground water directly through absorption in the soil and also through rain run-off in our streets where the chemicals enter our gutters and sewers and end up in our bays, rivers, lakes and streams.

As far as health is concerned, many of our crops are sprayed with glyphosate and then through food processing, the chemical is eaten by us.  Foods that have been found to contain glyphosate come from grains such as wheat, corn, oats etc. In addition, lentils, soy, tea, honey were shown to have levels of glyphosate detected.  Common foods containing glyphosate include bread, cereal, snack bars and pasta.  Basically anything made with wheat.

Recent research is showing that glyphosate has a major effect on digestive gut biology and can throw of the balance of gut bacteria, leading to leaky gut and linked to the rise in celiac disease.

Stephanie Seneff, Ph.D., a senior research scientist at MIT, has published a new book, “Toxic Legacy: How the Weedkiller Glyphosate Is Destroying Our Health and the Environment.” “It's been a decade of learning everything I could about glyphosate,” Seneff says. “When I first heard about it I basically dropped everything else I was doing because I was so confident that I had found the answer to the autism epidemic. That was the thing I was looking for. I already understood the symptoms of autism, a very complex disease — lots of gut problems and mineral issues. Overnight I just started poring over all the papers I could find.

Séralini, a French toxicologist who had shown that very low doses of glyphosate over the lifespan of a rat could cause a lot of damage.

He pointed out that after three months, everything looked good, so it's a slow kill. This is one thing I emphasize in my book. Glyphosate is subtle, and that's really a huge problem because people don't [make the connection]. We have diabetes, obesity, autism, Alzheimer's. It's a long, long list, all the gut problems.

The microbes are being very much disturbed by the chronic poisoning with glyphosate, and then the gut becomes a central starting point for many diseases, including neurological diseases and arthritis. So, you see that disruption of the gut, and glyphosate can cause exactly the things that we're seeing.”

Dr. Seneff believes glyphosate contributes to and worsens damage caused by vaccines, in part because it binds very efficiently to aluminum used as an adjuvant in certain vaccines. It likely binds strongly to many other toxic metals as well.

Dr. Seneff suggest that we take glycine supplements on a daily basis to counter act the effects of glyphosate. Glycine is an inexpensive amino acid that can disrupt the effects of glyphosate in the body. In addition, the importance of eating organic foods, especially foods made with grains cannot be over emphasized. Lastly, another aspect of overall health, is gut health. Prebiotics and probiotics are essential for a healthy gut.  A diet high in processed food will throw of the vital balance of bacteria in the digestive tract to be healthy.

Covid-19 Update:  In the last two weeks, June 27^th – July 10^th, there have been 88 cases of Covid-19 reported in Atlantic County and 2 reported deaths.

Early Covid-19 treatment protocols:  Dr. Peter McCullough is an internist, cardiologist, epidemiologist, and a full professor of medicine at Texas A&M College of Medicine in Dallas. Dr. McCullough has impeccable academic credentials. He also has a master's degree in public health and is known for being one of the top five most-published medical researchers in the United States and is the editor of two medical journals.  McCullough has been an outspoken advocate for early treatment for COVID. In August 2020, McCullough's landmark paper "Pathophysiological Basis and Rationale for Early Outpatient Treatment of SARS-CoV-2 Infection"¹ was published online in the American Journal of Medicine. The follow-up paper is titled "Multifaceted Highly Targeted Sequential Multidrug Treatment of Early Ambulatory High-Risk SARS-CoV-2 Infection (COVID-19)"² and was published in Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine in December 2020. 

According to Dr. McCullough, 85% of all Covid-19 deaths could have been avoided if early treatment protocols used by him and many other doctors were not ignored and dismissed by mainstream medicine. Remedies that worked to kill the virus such as corticosteroids, hydroxychloroquine with zinc, ivermectin, intravenous vitamin D and C were suppressed or ignored despite the success of curing Covid-19.  In addition, many medical doctors around the country are successfully treating covid-19 with ozone and nebulized peroxide therapy.

In December 2020, McCullough published an updated protocol, co-written with 56 other authors who also had extensive experience with treating COVID-19 outpatients. The article  was published in the journal Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, of which McCullough is the editor-in-chief.

"That paper, today … is the most frequently downloaded paper from BET Journal," McCullough says. "It also is the basis for the American Association of Physician and Surgeons COVID early treatment guide.⁴

We have evidence that the treatment guide has been downloaded and utilized millions of times. And it was part of the early huge kick that we had in ambulatory treatment at home towards the end of December into January, which basically crushed the U.S. curve.

We were on schedule to have 1.7 to 2.1 million fatalities in the United States, as estimated by the CDC and others. We cut it off at about 600,000. That still is a tragedy. I've testified that 85% of that 600,000 could have been saved if we would have had … the protocols in place from the start.

Large Children and Covid-19 United Kingdom Study finds most young people face an “extremely low” risk of illness and death from COVID-19 and have no need to shield from the virus, according to researchers..

The analysis, which its authors say is the most comprehensive on the topic to date, backs up clinical reports that show children and teens are less likely to be hospitalized or face severe effects from the virus. COVID-19 does increase the chance of serious illness in the most vulnerable children — those with complex disabilities and severe existing medical conditions — but even in those cases the risks are smaller compared with adults.

Vaccine Informed Consent Information:  Vaccine related deaths jumps by 2000 this week.  Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System data released 7/2/21 by the CDC showed a total of 441,931 reports of adverse reactions from all age groups following COVID vaccines, including 9,048 deaths and 41,015 serious injuries between Dec. 14, 2020 and July 2, 2021.  VAERS is the primary government-funded system for reporting adverse vaccine reactions in the U.S. Reports submitted to VAERS require further investigation before a causal relationship can be confirmed.  321 million vaccine doses have been administered.  According to the CDC, as of June 28th 2021,   4,686 fully vaccinated people have been hospitalized or died from Covid-19 infection.  This week’s data for 12- to 17-year-olds show: 13,385 total adverse events, including 801 rated as serious and 14 reported deaths among 12- to 17-year-olds.  1,934 cases of anaphylaxis, 347 reports of myocarditis and 57 reports of blood clotting disorders in the 12-17 year old age group. This week’s data for pregnancy /prenatal vaccination shows pregnant women had 2,678 adverse events reported including 994 reports of miscarriage or premature birth. As of July 2, 327 million doses of the vaccine were administered. Based on the number of vaccines given, statistically speaking the adverse reaction rate is statistically low, but when compared to safety records of all other vaccines manufactured and administered over the last 30 years, now exceeds the reported death rate of more than 70 vaccines combined.
