Roundup, probable cancer, and high health literacy load.

Glyphosate (Roundup as we know it) is the most used herbicide in the world.

In March 2015 the WHO (World Health Organization) released a report that listed glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic to humans.”

Oh, and BTW I use the following broad definition of Health Literacy:“A health literate person is able to use health concepts and information generatively—applying information to novel situations. This is critical to our efforts to prepare the public to react to complex public health emergencies.”(From invited paper presented by me - Surgeon General’s Report on Health Literacy, September 7 2006, Bethesda Maryland http://www.surgeongeneral.gov/topics/healthliteracy/toc.html)
