Notas do episódio

How worried should we really be about glyphosate? There’s growing fear that the world’s most popular weed killer is causing everything from cancer to gut problems. But is the evidence clear enough?

In this episode I speak to Professor Michael Antoniou, who explains what he’s discovered by studying the health effects of glyphosate exposure - particularly within commercial formulations.
