Roundup & Cancer: Real Doctor Reacts To Monsanto's Lawsuit - Dr Ekberg

I am Dr. Ekberg with Wellness For Life

and I'd like to comment on a recent

lawsuit that was filed against Monsanto

for causing cancer and in this case

there was a school employee who had been

spraying roundup around the school 20 to

30 times per year and the jury decided

unanimously that roundup was a

significant causative factor in his

cancer so much that he was awarded two

hundred and eighty nine million dollars

he may only have a few months to live

unfortunately but at least his family

would be taken care of but this is an

important milestone in this type of

lawsuit because it's the first time

since the tobacco companies were brought

to trial that a huge company has been

found guilty of something like this and

as a result this may just be the first

step there may be thousands reportedly

anywhere from four to eight thousand

people with similar lawsuits waiting in

the background and it is a good thing

that there is there's significant

pressure being put on these companies

because they are causing damage and they

should not be allowed to cause damage

and kill people and hurt people and make

people sick without consequences it was

found that they acted with malice and

oppression that they knowingly

suppressed risks the World Health

Organization stated that that roundup

and glyphosate was a probable carcinogen

as early as 2015. Monsanto has been

employing ghost riders they have been

publishing papers as a deceptive tactic

to confuse the issue and to make it seem

like this is not a big deal so what is

this all about

well the case is important but there's a

lot at stake here for all of us for

every single person on the planet

because herbicides and roundup is an

herbicide it's a weed killer it's a

poison and before GMO

the weed killers would kill both the

weeds and the plants for the most part

so they couldn't use a whole lot of them

but since Monsanto developed GMOs that

were glyphosate resistant now they could

spray as much as they like they kill the

weeds but they won't kill the plants

that are grown from Monsanto's GMO seeds

and there is over 300 million pounds a

year of roundup used in the United

States alone there's like 10 million

pounds sorry 10 million tons used

worldwide since its its beginning so

this is almost a pound of poison per

person per year in this country so the

bigger implications of this is that it's

natural virtues unnatural that as

citizens of the planet we have a right

to choose whole natural safe life-giving

food and companies like Monsanto are are

tampering with nature they are they are

risking our right to do that nature

mother nature has spent eons to develop

safe blueprints safe genes safe

organisms ecosystems that all fit

together and now Monsanto is playing God

by tampering with a very blueprints of

life that's what GMOs are some people

are of the opinion that this is not a

big deal I'm not one of them I think

that nature is a whole lot smarter than

we give it credit for and I think

companies like this do a whole lot more

damage than then we give them credit for

so Bayer recently bought out Monsanto

Bayer is one of the largest

pharmaceutical companies in the world so

now we have a agricultural

pharmaceutical giant that controls

one-quarter of all the seeds in the

world so the seeds that's the food

supply so my suggestion

be that you read up on these issues that

you educate yourself that you make some

smart decisions on things that you can

do to preserve and ensure your future

right to choose safe foods I personally

would never touch a product from Bayer

or Monsanto I make very sure I'd read

the fine print and I would suggest that

you do the same if you feel like that's

the right thing to do after doing some

research so this is about a whole lot

more than a the verdict it's about a

whole lot more than a few weeds in your

driveway it's about the future of safe

food on the planet so please do your

research let me know what you find let

me know your opinions let me know if

there's some things that you have

changed that you have learned and some

other ways that maybe you can contribute

and help out the whole situation so let

me know and as always thanks for watching.
