When MPI and the EPA tell us glyphosate is safe, they are relying on animal studies conducted on laboratory rats and mice whose biology has been profoundly distorted by decades of commercial breeding. The science of 'safe' is more fragile than regulators want you to know.
After 45 years in paediatrics, Dr Michelle Perro believes glyphosate exposure deserves far greater scrutiny. In this interview, she discusses children's health, gut disorders, environmental exposures, and the questions she believes regulators are overlooking.
As microbiome research grows, some scientists are asking whether chemicals like glyphosate could influence the gut bacteria that play important roles in human health.
Glyphosate is frequently described as one of the most studied herbicides ever developed. Yet scientific understanding evolves. This article examines whether modern concerns about microbiome health, hormone disruption, cumulative exposure, and developmental effects were the same questions researchers were asking when many current safety standards were established.
Metabolomics is changing how scientists study chronic chemical exposure. Instead of looking only for obvious disease, researchers are beginning to examine the body’s quieter biochemical responses — including oxidative stress, energy disruption, and metabolic strain — long before illness is diagnosed.
Washing and cooking won’t remove glyphosate from food once it’s absorbed during growing. This article explains how exposure happens, why some foods carry higher risk, and what New Zealand shoppers can realistically do — while asking why proper testing isn’t already standard.
New research into metabolomics is exploring whether glyphosate exposure may leave measurable biological fingerprints inside the human body long before illness appears.
Are children more vulnerable to glyphosate exposure than current safety models assume? This article explores regulation, exposure, and what may be missing.
Scientists are increasingly studying oxidative stress as a possible biological mechanism linked to glyphosate exposure. But what exactly is oxidative stress, and why does it matter?
A recent study explored whether glyphosate exposure may trigger subtle biological stress long before disease becomes visible. The findings raise important questions about oxidative stress, metabolomics, and how we define chemical safety.
