The Jesse Chappus Show 685: MIT Scientist Warns: The Toxic Chemical Hidden in Our Food! | Dr. Stephanie Seneff
Dec 30, 2025
Dr. Stephanie Seneff, a senior research scientist at MIT, dives into the alarming effects of glyphosate, a widely used herbicide. She discusses its surprising links to autism and gut health, asserting it disrupts beneficial gut bacteria. Stephanie highlights glyphosate’s potential to replace amino acids in proteins, leading to severe functional consequences. She warns against the risks posed by both GMO and non-GMO crops, and emphasizes dietary strategies to mitigate exposure. Tune in for her insights on the intersection of toxins, agriculture, and health.

Episode notes
Glyphosate Is Pervasive And Problematic
- Glyphosate is the active ingredient historically in Roundup and is pervasive in the food supply. Stephanie Seneff links rising glyphosate use to many health problems and wrote Toxic Legacy about it.
Glyphosate Drives Gut Dysbiosis
- Glyphosate disrupts the gut microbiome, killing beneficial bacteria and allowing pathogens to grow. This dysbiosis maps tightly to gut inflammation and many conditions linked to autism.
Leaky Gut, Metals, And Brain Risk
- Reduced butyrate production harms colonocyte mitochondria, causing leaky gut and systemic inflammation. Glyphosate can escort metals like aluminum across the compromised barrier to the brain.
