[font=Georgia, serif]“Currently pesticide formulations are tested for acute toxicity—the amount that will kill you in two weeks—but not for all the long-term diseases like cancer, endocrine, nervous, immune metabolic, birth defects, and on and on".[/font]
Not so ... twenty years ago I was working for the largest independent toxicology lab in the UK that, amongst other things, did work on pesticides. We may even have worked on glyphosphate but I don't remember for certain. Anyway, we most certainly and routinely undertook lifetime pre-clinical carcinogenicity studies on these compounds as well as teratology studies and all the rest. That statement quoted above is not true.
