Roundup®, Glyphosate, and the Link to Cancer
Glyphosate is a chemical commonly used in many herbicides and is the main active ingredient in many products within the Roundup® family. The chemical works by inhibiting an enzyme that is essential to plant growth.
While Bayer and Monsanto continue to claim that their glyphosate-based weed killer does not cause cancer, the cancer research agency of the World Health Organization (IARC) issued a report in 2015 stating that the chemical is likely carcinogenic.
This report was supported by a wide range of studies that provided convincing evidence from the United States, Canada, and Sweden.
Who Has Been Affected?
The studies initiated and undertaken by the IARC focused on studies conducted in lab rats. While the scientific evidence that directly links glyphosate and cancer in humans is still being explored, the studies also indicated that farmers and agricultural workers who were exposed to the chemical in high concentrations developed cancer at higher rates than others. It is thus believed that there is an association between regular glyphosate exposure and the development of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
Why are People Filing Lawsuits?
Plaintiffs are alleging that Monsanto and Bayer knew about the potential risks of glyphosate or at some point became aware that the serious health risks existed, yet took no action to warn the public about the potential dangers of Roundup®.
Thousands of lawsuits have been filed against the company for the harm its products have allegedly caused to date and its failure to inform consumers.
Has Roundup® Been Recalled?
To date, there has been no active recall of Roundup®. The EPA still maintains that the chemical carries no “meaningful risks” to humans. However, litigation documents have shown that Monsanto created fake research studies and worked with an official at the EPA to cover up the connection between Roundup® and cancer.
Studies have shown that there is a link between regular exposure to glyphosate and cancer and more than 15 countries have totally or partially banned its use.
