Unwind with Poppy Jamie

How herbicides are threatening our mental health, fertility and longevity with Dr Stephanie Seneff

In today's podcast episode, I'm thrilled to be joined by Dr. Stephanie Seneff, a senior research scientist at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. Renowned for her groundbreaking book, "Toxic Legacy: How the Weedkiller Glyphosate Is Destroying Our Health and the Environment," Dr. Stephanie Seneff has devoted the last decade to researching the profound impacts of toxic chemicals and micronutrient deficiencies on our health.


Her primary focus is on glyphosate, a widely used weedkiller employed by millions of farmers and even common household gardeners under the brand name Roundup. Despite facing criticism, Dr. Stephanie Seneff delves into the scientific intricacies of her work, revealing how weedkillers can impact mental health, fertility, hormonal balance, and brain function. This interview addresses the alarming disparities in global regulatory approaches to glyphosate, prompting critical questions about its safety, especially in countries like Mexico, where it has been deemed unsafe for both humans and animals. Despite the scientific depth of the conversation, it is a compelling and necessary discussion that sheds light on issues we all need to be aware of.
