Advance on clinical study of glyphosate toxicity

  • Recent studies have found close correlations between the explosive growth of several clinical diseases and the widespread use of glyphosate. Glyphosate acts on populations through chronic low-dose exposure, which may cause comprehensive intestinal flora imbalance, obstruction of sulfate transport, and inhibition of cytochrome enzyme function, and possibly be associated with elevated risks of coeliac disease, autism spectrum disorder, infertility, obesity, and cancer. This article reviewed the toxicity of glyphosate and the relationships between glyphosate and various clinical diseases, aiming to rise concerns among relevant researchers and institutes to take actions to reduce public health risks.
