Full Transcript Introduction to the toxin series 0:01 Hello, Lisa Broyles here with Way to 0:01 Hello, Lisa Broyles here with Way to Health MD. I just gave a lecture for my 0:03 Health MD. I just gave a lecture for my 0:03 Health MD. I just gave a lecture for my community. I'm so excited about the 0:05 community. I'm so excited about the 0:05 community. I'm so excited about the topics that I realized I need to put 0:07 topics that I realized I need to put 0:07 topics that I realized I need to put this into a video series. So, I'm going 0:09 this into a video series. So, I'm going 0:09 this into a video series. So, I'm going to take the next three videos and 0:10 to take the next three videos and 0:10 to take the next three videos and explain common environmental toxins. 0:12 explain common environmental toxins. 0:12 explain common environmental toxins. Today, we're going to talk about
Glyphosate exposure and health risks 0:14 Today, we're going to talk about 0:14 Today, we're going to talk about glyphosate, which is Roundup, and sodium 0:16 glyphosate, which is Roundup, and sodium 0:16 glyphosate, which is Roundup, and sodium benzoate. So, jumping right in, 0:18 benzoate. So, jumping right in, 0:18 benzoate. So, jumping right in, glyphosate, that is Roundup. We spray it 0:21 glyphosate, that is Roundup. We spray it 0:21 glyphosate, that is Roundup. We spray it on our lawns, we eat it in our 0:22 on our lawns, we eat it in our 0:22 on our lawns, we eat it in our non-organic food. What's the big deal 0:25 non-organic food. What's the big deal 0:25 non-organic food. What's the big deal with glyphosate? Okay, so farmers, farm 0:28 with glyphosate? Okay, so farmers, farm 0:28 with glyphosate? Okay, so farmers, farm workers, people that are directly 0:30 workers, people that are directly 0:30 workers, people that are directly exposed to heavy amounts of glyphosate, 0:32 exposed to heavy amounts of glyphosate, 0:32 exposed to heavy amounts of glyphosate, we have good studies proving that they 0:34 we have good studies proving that they 0:34 we have good studies proving that they do have a 40% increased risk of 0:37 do have a 40% increased risk of 0:37 do have a 40% increased risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a 40 as well as 0:40 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a 40 as well as 0:41 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a 40 as well as acute myeloid leukemia. So, we do know 0:43 acute myeloid leukemia. So, we do know 0:43 acute myeloid leukemia. So, we do know that there are some blood disorders that 0:45 that there are some blood disorders that 0:45 that there are some blood disorders that are associated with heavy glyphosate 0:49 are associated with heavy glyphosate 0:49 are associated with heavy glyphosate absorption and exposure. Now, you're 0:51 absorption and exposure. Now, you're 0:51 absorption and exposure. Now, you're going to say, "Well, I don't I'm not a 0:52 going to say, "Well, I don't I'm not a 0:52 going to say, "Well, I don't I'm not a farmer. I am not exposed to heavy 0:54 farmer. I am not exposed to heavy 0:54 farmer. I am not exposed to heavy amounts of these chemicals. What about 0:56 amounts of these chemicals. What about 0:56 amounts of these chemicals. What about me?" Well, we also have studies showing
Glyphosate, brain effects, and avoiding exposure 0:58 me?" Well, we also have studies showing 0:58 me?" Well, we also have studies showing that pregnant women, okay, that 1:01 that pregnant women, okay, that 1:01 that pregnant women, okay, that glyphosate crosses the placenta and it 1:04 glyphosate crosses the placenta and it 1:04 glyphosate crosses the placenta and it affects the neurocognitive development 1:06 affects the neurocognitive development 1:06 affects the neurocognitive development of the fetus. Okay, we also know that 1:09 of the fetus. Okay, we also know that 1:09 of the fetus. Okay, we also know that glyphosate crosses the blood-brain 1:11 glyphosate crosses the blood-brain 1:11 glyphosate crosses the blood-brain barrier. So, it's in the bloodstream, it 1:13 barrier. So, it's in the bloodstream, it 1:13 barrier. So, it's in the bloodstream, it crosses into our brain tissue, and it 1:16 crosses into our brain tissue, and it 1:16 crosses into our brain tissue, and it increases amyloid deposition. Amyloid is 1:19 increases amyloid deposition. Amyloid is 1:19 increases amyloid deposition. Amyloid is what causes Alzheimer's, people. This is 1:21 what causes Alzheimer's, people. This is 1:21 what causes Alzheimer's, people. This is a big deal. Glyphosate increases 1:24 a big deal. Glyphosate increases 1:24 a big deal. Glyphosate increases amyloid, which increases cognitive 1:27 amyloid, which increases cognitive 1:27 amyloid, which increases cognitive decline and leads to Alzheimer's. Direct 1:30 decline and leads to Alzheimer's. Direct 1:30 decline and leads to Alzheimer's. Direct correlation. So, we also know that 1:33 correlation. So, we also know that 1:33 correlation. So, we also know that there's other issues with glyphosate 1:35 there's other issues with glyphosate 1:35 there's other issues with glyphosate with uh cognitive impairment. We found 1:38 with uh cognitive impairment. We found 1:38 with uh cognitive impairment. We found that it impairs recognition memory. And 1:42 that it impairs recognition memory. And 1:42 that it impairs recognition memory. And there's an area of the brain that's 1:43 there's an area of the brain that's 1:43 there's an area of the brain that's first affected when you're starting to 1:45 first affected when you're starting to 1:45 first affected when you're starting to have cognitive decline called the 1:46 have cognitive decline called the 1:46 have cognitive decline called the hippocampus. So, we see direct in 1:50 hippocampus. So, we see direct in 1:50 hippocampus. So, we see direct in increase in inflammation in the 1:52 increase in inflammation in the 1:52 increase in inflammation in the hippocampus from glyphosate. It also 1:55 hippocampus from glyphosate. It also 1:55 hippocampus from glyphosate. It also decreases acetylcholine. And 1:57 decreases acetylcholine. And 1:57 decreases acetylcholine. And acetylcholine is what your brain needs 1:59 acetylcholine is what your brain needs 1:59 acetylcholine is what your brain needs to think, to transmit signal from cell 2:01 to think, to transmit signal from cell 2:01 to think, to transmit signal from cell to cell. Exposure to glyphosate does 2:04 to cell. Exposure to glyphosate does 2:04 to cell. Exposure to glyphosate does cause cognitive impairment. So, how can 2:06 cause cognitive impairment. So, how can 2:06 cause cognitive impairment. So, how can we avoid exposure? Eat organic. I have 2:09 we avoid exposure? Eat organic. I have 2:09 we avoid exposure? Eat organic. I have an example here. Here we have 2:11 an example here. Here we have 2:11 an example here. Here we have non-organic bananas and organic bananas, 2:14 non-organic bananas and organic bananas, 2:15 non-organic bananas and organic bananas, okay? So, the truth is, if you peel your 2:17 okay? So, the truth is, if you peel your 2:17 okay? So, the truth is, if you peel your banana, you're not going to get the
Sodium benzoate and benzene formation 2:19 banana, you're not going to get the 2:19 banana, you're not going to get the glyphosate that's on the outer skin of 2:21 glyphosate that's on the outer skin of 2:21 glyphosate that's on the outer skin of this banana. However, what about those 2:24 this banana. However, what about those 2:24 this banana. However, what about those farm workers? So, by eating your organic 2:26 farm workers? So, by eating your organic 2:26 farm workers? So, by eating your organic banana, you are supporting companies 2:28 banana, you are supporting companies 2:28 banana, you are supporting companies that are not spraying their farm workers 2:31 that are not spraying their farm workers 2:31 that are not spraying their farm workers with glyphosate and giving them 2:33 with glyphosate and giving them 2:33 with glyphosate and giving them non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. 2:35 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. 2:35 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Okay, we're going to talk about sodium 2:37 Okay, we're going to talk about sodium 2:37 Okay, we're going to talk about sodium benzoate. Sodium benzoate is a common 2:40 benzoate. Sodium benzoate is a common 2:40 benzoate. Sodium benzoate is a common preservative in beverages, in foods, in 2:43 preservative in beverages, in foods, in 2:43 preservative in beverages, in foods, in shampoos, lotions. We have a 2:47 shampoos, lotions. We have a 2:47 shampoos, lotions. We have a um lotion here. We have a shampoo. Both 2:51 um lotion here. We have a shampoo. Both 2:51 um lotion here. We have a shampoo. Both of these contain sodium benzoate as a 2:54 of these contain sodium benzoate as a 2:54 of these contain sodium benzoate as a preservative. 2:56 preservative. 2:56 preservative. What's the deal with sodium benzoate? 2:58 What's the deal with sodium benzoate? 2:58 What's the deal with sodium benzoate? So, sodium benzoate in of itself doesn't 3:01 So, sodium benzoate in of itself doesn't 3:01 So, sodium benzoate in of itself doesn't harm you. However, when sodium benzoate 3:04 harm you. However, when sodium benzoate 3:04 harm you. However, when sodium benzoate comes in contact with vitamin C, which 3:07 comes in contact with vitamin C, which 3:07 comes in contact with vitamin C, which is called ascorbic acid, that 3:09 is called ascorbic acid, that 3:09 is called ascorbic acid, that combination can create benzene, and 3:11 combination can create benzene, and 3:11 combination can create benzene, and benzene causes cancer, okay? So, sodium 3:15 benzene causes cancer, okay? So, sodium 3:15 benzene causes cancer, okay? So, sodium benzene has been associated with liver 3:17 benzene has been associated with liver 3:17 benzene has been associated with liver damage, kidney damage, genotoxicity. 3:20 damage, kidney damage, genotoxicity. 3:20 damage, kidney damage, genotoxicity. That means that the benzene created by 3:23 That means that the benzene created by 3:23 That means that the benzene created by vitamin C combined with that sodium 3:25 vitamin C combined with that sodium 3:25 vitamin C combined with that sodium benzoate actually causes your DNA to 3:28 benzoate actually causes your DNA to 3:28 benzoate actually causes your DNA to mutate. That causes cancer, guys. That 3:30 mutate. That causes cancer, guys. That 3:31 mutate. That causes cancer, guys. That causes neurodegeneration, 3:33 causes neurodegeneration, 3:33 causes neurodegeneration, neurotoxicity. So, we've got multiple 3:35 neurotoxicity. So, we've got multiple 3:35 neurotoxicity. So, we've got multiple studies showing that when you avoid 3:36 studies showing that when you avoid 3:36 studies showing that when you avoid sodium benzoate and food colorings, that 3:39 sodium benzoate and food colorings, that 3:39 sodium benzoate and food colorings, that has beneficial effects on the behavior 3:41 has beneficial effects on the behavior 3:41 has beneficial effects on the behavior of children with ADHD. So, sodium 3:45 of children with ADHD. So, sodium 3:45 of children with ADHD. So, sodium benzoate, it's really hard to find stuff 3:47 benzoate, it's really hard to find stuff 3:47 benzoate, it's really hard to find stuff that doesn't have it in it, okay? I 3:49 that doesn't have it in it, okay? I 3:49 that doesn't have it in it, okay? I managed to find one brand at my grocery 3:51 managed to find one brand at my grocery 3:51 managed to find one brand at my grocery store that did not have sodium benzoate 3:54 store that did not have sodium benzoate 3:54 store that did not have sodium benzoate and it was this Everyman Jack. Pay 3:56 and it was this Everyman Jack. Pay 3:56 and it was this Everyman Jack. Pay attention. Lotion, I use Eucerin. 3:59 attention. Lotion, I use Eucerin. 3:59 attention. Lotion, I use Eucerin. Eucerin does not have sodium benzoate in 4:01 Eucerin does not have sodium benzoate in 4:01 Eucerin does not have sodium benzoate in it. So, you've got to look at what's in 4:04 it. So, you've got to look at what's in 4:04 it. So, you've got to look at what's in your products. 4:06 your products. 4:06 your products. Stay tuned next week. We're going to 4:08 Stay tuned next week. We're going to 4:08 Stay tuned next week. We're going to talk about two more common environmental 4:10 talk about two more common environmental 4:10 talk about two more common environmental toxins.
