Conventional agriculture, meanwhile, is wholly dependent on preemptive pesticide use, dousing entire fields of crops in herbicides like glyphosate and accelerating the evolution of superweeds in the process.

Suggesting that organic’s limited use of chemicals is equivalent to that of conventional growers — who apply 280 million pounds of glyphosate alone on nearly 300 million acres of U.S. cropland annually — is a deliberate distortion of the facts.

Glyphosate is one of the most pervasive herbicides used in the U.S. and worldwide.

The research, which appears today in the Journal of Neuroinflammation, identifies an association between glyphosate exposure in mice and symptoms of neuroinflammation, as well as accelerated Alzheimer's disease-like pathology.

This study tracks both the presence and impact of glyphosate's byproducts in the brain long after exposure ends, showing an array of persistent, damaging effects on brain health.
