Glyphosate is a herbicide that was introduced in 1974 and is now the most widely used weed killer in the world. It is sprayed on food crops, gardens, parks, and lawns to kill unwanted plants. While glyphosate is effective at killing plants, there are some dangers associated with its use.
People who regularly use Roundup, such as those who maintain gardens, turfgrass, and farms, are at a higher risk of developing cancer and other health problems. This is because glyphosate has been found to increase cancer risk, according to an extensive body of research.
