Roundup Lawsuits

Why Glyphosate Is Dangerous
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) research cites glyphosate as the active ingredient in Roundup weed killer. Glyphosate can irritate skin and eyes and cause nausea and vomiting if swallowed. It has also been associated with the following health hazards:
- Respiratory difficulty
- Nasal irritation
- Asthma
Additionally, studies indicate that glyphosate can lead to developmental difficulties. Including low body weight and abnormal bone and organ growth. So, if you were exposed to Roundup and subsequently suffered any adverse health conditions, we can help search for evidence to prove that exposure to this chemical was a contributing factor.
Understand the Roundup-Cancer Connection
According to Mutation Research/Reviews in Mutation Research, a University of Washington study from 2018, shows a 41% increased risk of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) among agricultural workers. Who, used products containing glyphosate, like Roundup.
Exposure to it can occur from regular use. Such as, spraying Roundup and subsequently breathing it in. You can also suffer exposure by swallowing food contaminated with glyphosate. Or, handling wet or recently sprayed plants.
Therefore, CDC research categorizes Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma as a type of cancer that randomly invades the lymphatic system. Treatment for this type of leukemia often includes chemotherapy. Or, radiation, and stem cell transplants. You could recoup the cost of these treatments. In addition to financial expenses and losses, with a lawsuit against the product’s manufacturer.
Additional Health Care Risks of Roundup’s Active Ingredient
