Toxic Legacy

How the Weedkiller Glyphosate Is Destroying Our Health and the Environment

By: Stephanie Seneff

Narrated by: Jill Smith

From an MIT scientist, mounting evidence that the active ingredient in the world’s most commonly used weedkiller is responsible for debilitating chronic diseases, including cancer, liver disease, and more

Glyphosate is the active ingredient in Roundup, the most commonly used weedkiller in the world. Nearly 300 million pounds of glyphosate-based herbicide are sprayed on farms - and food - every year.

Agrochemical companies claim that glyphosate is safe for humans, animals, and the environment. But emerging scientific research on glyphosate’s deadly disruption of the gut microbiome, its crippling effect on protein synthesis, and its impact on the body’s ability to use and transport sulfur - not to mention several landmark legal cases - tells a very different story.

In Toxic Legacy, senior research scientist Stephanie Seneff, PhD, delivers compelling evidence based on countless published, peer-reviewed studies - all in frank, illuminating, and always accessible language.

Throughout Toxic Legacy, listeners will discover:

• The uniquely toxic nature of glyphosate
• How glyphosate disrupts the microbiome, leading to gut dysbiosis, autoimmunity, neurodegeneration, and more
• Why we’re seeing a rise in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, infertility, depression, and anxiety
• Glyphosate’s role in soil degeneration, water contamination, and threats to wildlife and biodiversity
• Important nutritional guidance for conscientious consumers who want to avoid glyphosate-contaminated foods and improve their health

As Rachel Carson did with DDT in the 1960s, Stephanie Seneff sounds the alarm on glyphosate, giving you guidance on simple, powerful changes you can make right now and essential information you need to protect your health, your family’s health, and the planet on which we all depend.

Critic reviews

“Toxic Legacy will stand shoulder to shoulder with Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring. [This is] unquestionably, one of the most important books of our time.” (David Perlmutter, MD, number one New York Times best-selling author of Grain Brain and Brain Wash)

“Urgent and eye-opening, the book serves as a loud-and-clear alarm.” (The Boston Globe)

“A game-changer that we would be foolish to ignore.” (Kirkus Reviews, starred)

eye opener

we've been duped into believing that glyphasate is safe for us and the environment, NOT!

Must read for your health!

So much useful information presented in an understandable way. Everything is explained and substantiated by evidence

Important information about the way produce is grown

Please please please read this book and inform yourself of the harmful effects Glyphosate (roundup) is having on the environment and all living beings. The narrator did a wonderful job and the book itself is a seriously incredibly well done job.

Deep and thorough coverage of the topic

The central topic, glyphosate, and all it touches in our lives is shown to be pervasive and difficult to escape. The author explains why at the molecular level as well as the broader view of its global reach. The author covers all of the systems affected by the molecule within our own bodies as well as those of insects, plants and waterways. Even our pets lives are shortened and made miserable by what this one "herbicide" does to their body systems. Other agrochemicals and agscience are necessarily touched on. The book is a necessary turning of knowledge from what an industry has presented as harmless to a grave awareness of what it really is. This topic has been so long hidden, and then ignored, that we have come to a precipice of losing the not-so-delicate balance of nature, including human health.

Rachel Carson is proud of DR. Stephanie Seneff

MIT Senior Researcher DR. Stephanie Seneff delivered a Masterpiece that make greatest American Woman Rachel Carson proud. I will incorporate incorporate her book in the ShortSearch AI 14 Layers Evolution Education System .
