In reply to the discussion: Glyphosate Found in Childhood Vaccines [View all]Harmony Blue
(3,978 posts)and didn't bother to read the article in length putting down people that are genuinely concerned and asking the right questions. Science is not an unwavering dogma carved in stones and asking questions is always a good thing because that is the core of science.
The article was well balanced and here is some excerpts about it:
"]According to MIT scientist Dr. Stephanie Seneff, "Glyphosate could easily be present in vaccines due to the fact that certain vaccine viruses including measles in MMR and flu are grown on gelatin derived from the ligaments of pigs fed heavy doses of glyphosate in their GMO feed. Gelatin comes from collagen which has lots of glycine. Livestock feed is allowed to have up to 400 PPM [parts per million] of glyphosate residues by the EPA, thousands of times higher than has been shown to cause harm in numerous studies."
This points out how could glyphosate can be found in vaccines and what the accepted levels are according to the EPA.
"French scientist and glyphosate expert Gilles-Eric Séralini has shown in his research that glyphosate is never used alone. It is always used with adjuvants (co-formulants/other chemicals) and he has found those adjuvants to make Roundup 1,000 times more toxic. The detection of glyphosate in vaccines with this methodology would indicate the presence of other co-formulants which are also toxic."
This is a concern and people have the right to ask tough questions.
Our understanding is not resolute which is why the levels of lead exposure that we have found acceptable to the human body has changed constantly over time, because the science changes and our technology improves as we learn more.
