What is the Harmful Ingredient in Roundup?
At the center of the Roundup cases is the ingredient glyphosate, a widely used herbicide used to kill weeds and other unwanted plants. Glyphosate was developed and patented by the Monsanto Company in 1974. It’s the active ingredient in Roundup and is now the active ingredient for most weed killers.
Is Glyphosate Harmful for Humans and Animals?
Yes, it’s harmful to humans and animals. According to a 2015 evaluation by the International Agency for Research on Cancer of the World Health Organization defined glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic to humans.” This is widely agreed upon by most health professionals and related organizations.
