Dr. Stephanie Seneff, Senior Research Scientist at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, kindly agreed to share her expertise on Roundup/glyphosate on The Anxiety Summit.
This is the title of our interview: “Aluminum and glyphosate (Roundup) collaborate to cause anxiety, depression, autism and celiac disease.”
Recently Dr. Seneff has become very concerned about the current autism epidemic and her research leads her to believe that glyphosate plays a critical role in this epidemic as well as in modern diseases like anxiety and depression
During our interview Dr. Seneff shared this:
“There are a group of us who are extremely concerned because the manufacturer of glyphosate has repeatedly claimed that it’s almost harmless to humans. So people are using it very carelessly and they are not monitoring it in their blood, in their urine, in their food or in their water. Everyone is assuming that it’s fine and so it is extremely insidious and dangerous for that reason”
We also talked about how widespread the use of Roundup has been, which is all rather disturbing considering what Dr. Seneff and other researchers are finding.
Dr. Seneff shared this:
“Wheat and sugar cane… farmers have been increasingly adopting the practice of spraying these crops right before the harvest (with Roundup)…These are not Roundup ready so the crops dies. And that’s the intention…to hasten the harvest… Nobody thinks it’s toxic…And we have the celiac disease epidemic…and all these gluten free sections showing up in the grocery stores. I think this is directly due to Roundup residue in the wheat.”
Dr. Seneff’s 2013 paper called Glyphosate, pathways to modern diseases II: Celiac sprue and gluten intolerance found that:
“Deficiencies in tryptophan, tyrosine, methionine and selenomethionine associated with celiac disease, match glyphosate’s known depletion of these amino acids”… contributing to anxiety and depression.
The paper ends with this plea:
“We conclude with a plea to governments to reconsider policies regarding the safety of glyphosate residues in foods.”
Join us on The Anxiety Summit to hear the whole interview (and hear 20+ other experts share research, nutritional pearls, food advice and protocols)
- Why glyphosate is sprayed on wheat right before the harvest, and how this explains the epidemic in gluten intolerance
- How glyphosate disrupts gut bacteria causing a deficiency in beneficial bacteria and an overgrowth of pathogenic forms
- How glyphosate depletes minerals like cobalt, zinc, molybdenum, and manganese by caging them; and how it depletes serotonin and GABA levels
- How glyphosate disrupts cytochrome P450 enzymes in the gut and liver, with devastating consequences
The Anxiety Summit is a free online virtual event that runs June 9 to June 22 and will be bringing together experts from all over the world – to share nutritional approaches to end anxiety, social anxiety, panic attacks and OCD. Get access here www.theanxietysummit.com
UPDATE: the summit concluded on Tues 6/24 – season 2 of The Anxiety Summit will be in November 2014. If you’d like to be on the notification list just sign up here www.theAnxietySummit.com
Wow! Trudy thank you so much for keeping us on track with this important information. I can truly say I hadn’t thought about this before but it makes perfect sense. When our cocker spaniel died of cancer at age 6 two different vet schools laid the blame on lawn chemicals as the cause of his lymphoma!
Mary Ellen
I’m so sorry to hear about your doggie – and yes, lawn chemicals are bad!
Dr. Seneff is also looking the impacts on cancer and other diseases – here’s a blog post on Huffpo http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/04/25/roundup-herbicide-health-issues-disease_n_3156575.html
The work she is doing is so important and I’m thrilled to have interviewed her. I hope you can join us and listen in!
Trudy
Great video, Trudy. Your summit is really going to be a huge wealth of information for many people.
Thanks Sue and thanks for your great support – you sharing this summit with your peeps means a lot!
The information you provide is always of such high value.
Thank you.
Trudy – We can always count on you to keep us informed and empowered to make healthy decisions! Thanks 🙂
This is right up my alley, Trudy! In addition to food allergies, we also have celiac and gluten sensitivity in my family. I can’t wait to hear her interview and learn more about her research!
Thanks Tiffany – you’re going to love our interview. It’s such a central factor when it comes to wheat. I was blown away!
Wow! It’s terrifying how our bodies are getting more and more overloaded with toxins from situations like this.
I’m happy and grateful that you’re educating people about this, Trudy.
You’re Summit is going to be mind-blowing! : D

The scary thing is that so many people aren’t even aware. We have researchers like Dr. Seneff to thank for her dedication in bringing this to us. And I get to share it in a big way via The Anxiety Summit!
Thanks for your support!
The scary thing is that so may people aren’t even aware. We have researchers like Dr. Seneff to thank for her dedication in bringing this to us. And I get to share it in a big way via The Anxiety Summit!
Thanks for your support!
You continue to give me hope Trudy, because awareness is half the battle. Thank you for always being an excellent resource!!
You’re so right Jessica – what we don’t know is scary. Knowledge is power!
This is such a huge issue and so worrisome. I’m really glad that you’re bringing this issue to light. And can’t wait for your summit to start!!
Yes terribly worrisome! I can’t wait for it to start too! I’m beside myself with excitement!
I’m so thrilled you’re one of the presenters! additives and anxiety – yeah!!
Wow Trudy – there is just so much we can be ignorant about when it comes to what we put in our bodies and are exposed to. Thanks for shedding a light on this important information!
I have eaten healthy and lived an above average healthy lifestyle. I am a RN, was a nutritionist and frankly blind to some of these issues. I am now terminally ill. It is not genetically connected cancer that I have been extensively tested for. I am 68 yrs old. My parents lived til almost to 100. I have thought long and hard. I do believe it was my food. I ate tons of fruits and vegetables. I think it worked against me as the farmers were using pesticides. I always ate greens to a fault….thinking I was doing tthe right thing. I did not eat organic back then. Now I am full of spreading cancer…I did not smoke, I did not drink, I did everything right. I was a ntritionist and a RN and had an ecellent background. What a shame, I am on my way out with this cancer taking over. And you are right people do not know, I don’t know if they care to know. But it can start with education.

I am so sorry to hear this and so appreciate you sharing this here. I agree, pesticides are a terrible thing.
I’m sure you’ve explored many complimentary options for your cancer but in case you haven’t Dr. Nalini Chilkov is my top recommendation. I also really feel Dr Lise Aschuler and Donnie Yance are doing amazing work with folks with cancer.
Also, when I first started out as a nutritionist, I interned with nutritionist Ellyn Hilliard and she had great success with the Gerson protocol.
I now know more about methylation and feel we should all support possible MTHFR polymorphisms as there is cancer connection. We also need good methylation function for detoxification.
