but the facts are that the anti-glyphosate "movement" is not dying out, it is growing. I just read where Germany is banning Roundup in 2024. I can show you the list of countries and states and cities that have banned Roundup.

Yes, one can get cancer from many things, but if glyphosate weakens one's immune system that person is going to be more susceptible to getting cancer.

Do you know why scientists don't do studies with human subjects to compare GMO v non-GMO? Why do they only do studies using mice?
