Episode notes
Personal Health Turnaround
- Kelly described a long personal illness journey that began with fatigue, vitamin deficiencies, and misdiagnoses.
- Her recovery started after diet changes, supplementation, and questioning conventional medical assumptions.
How Glyphosate Became Ubiquitous
- Glyphosate is the active ingredient in Roundup and became globally dominant after Monsanto developed glyphosate-resistant GMO seeds.
- That combination allowed heavy glyphosate use across broad acreage starting in the 1990s.
Microbiome Is The Vulnerable Target
- Glyphosate targets the shikimate pathway, which human cells lack but gut bacteria possess, so it disrupts the microbiome.
- Microbiome damage can reduce serotonin production, create dysbiosis, and contribute to leaky gut and autoimmunity.
