Next, I do believe it can cause cancer. Without a doubt.

Why do you believe so?

There must be a basis for your belief.

NHL, then HL my mother
AML Leukemia for myself

The interesting thing is we both had the same dna translocation caused by cancer. (It was not part of our original dna.) I had a stem cell transplant 4 years ago. Mom passed from HL in August. No we never tried to sue. But after my mom’s NHL 18 years ago, my dad stopped using it. My dad grew up on a farm during the depression and as a civil engineer was not the get caught up conspiracies type. But, after my moms nhl, he never used it again.

Years of Exposure. I will never touch the stuff.

There are studies showing Roundup exposure is linked to increases in some forms of cancer, which is why they have won some lawsuits to date. What you will not often see, because nobody has noted it yet, and what I stumbled upon by accident once. Glyphosate is an inhibitor of an enzyme in glycolysis, which can cause a buildup of a byproduct of glycolysis, and fool the body into thinking it is swimming in calories, and trigger cellular proliferation (a growth phase).

That massive proliferation is one step in the formation of cancer cells, so IMO, Roundup definitely has what you would expect of a molecule associated with Cancer formation. That they noted the linkage before anybody noticed the mechanism makes me vey suspect of it.

As do all the posts we see swarm these threads immediately trying to make it sound like everybody loves Monsanto, Roundup couldn’t possibly be associated with cancer, and our enemies are the lawyers. Those companies hire companies whose sole purpose is to post things like that. It makes me wonder, especially when there is a valid biochemical reason to think there might be something to it.
