New Glyphosate Study Link it to Liver Disease Epidemic
Episode 11
According to a review of numerous studies, there is a potential link between exposure to glyphosate, a widely used herbicide, and the rise in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).
Research on human, animal, and cell studies suggests that even low levels of glyphosate exposure may contribute to liver issues such as inflammation, scarring, and fat buildup.
This episode of FoodNourish Deep Dives, article notes that the increase in MASLD rates parallels the increased use of glyphosate globally, particularly in areas with high pesticide use.
While further investigation is needed, the authors of the review emphasize the compelling evidence supporting a relationship and the urgent need for re-evaluation of safety standards.
