In the quiet battle for human health, one of the most insidious foes is glyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup. Despite being marketed as “safe” for human use, a growing body of research reveals that glyphosate is a potent disruptor of reproductive health, causing permanent damage to reproductive organs and affecting fertility across generations.

Dr. Samuel S. Epstein’s book “What’s In Your Milk?” investigates rBGH (recombinant bovine growth hormone), a synthetic hormone developed by Monsanto (now Bayer) in the 1980s to increase milk production and the associated health risks for cows and humans. Cows treated with rBGH experience severe health issues, including increased infections, infertility and stress-related diseases.

Jeffrey M. Smith’s “Seeds of Deception” is a best-selling book that serves as a critical examination of the genetically modified organisms (GMOs) industry, exposing the lack of transparency and the potential risks associated with genetically engineered foods. It calls for increased consumer awareness and action against the dominance of GMOs in the food supply.

Pesticides are a worldwide health problem, destroying environments, animals’ lives and human health as well. Most people think this is an “outdoor” problem, but now science and research reveal these contaminants are being tracked into the average home at alarming rates and intensity. The result? People are getting cancer and suffering other horrendous health outcomes from eating pesticides, ingesting them, and getting them on their skin.

Wild chimpanzees in Guinea-Bissau have been observed deliberately sharing fermented fruit with alcohol, suggesting the evolutionary roots of human social drinking may date back millions of years. Researchers documented chimps passing around African breadfruit with up to 0.61% ABV, often choosing fermented options even when fresher fruit was available, indicating a possible preference.

Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, disrupts the gut microbiome – harming beneficial bacteria and contributing to chronic diseases like autism, autoimmune disorders and neurological conditions. It also binds to essential minerals, causing nutrient deficiencies, and can create malformed proteins linked to liver disease and infertility.

Glyphosate, the key ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup, is found in common foods like Cheerios, Oreos and Ritz Crackers at levels exceeding safety thresholds. It’s the most heavily used herbicide globally, applied to over 440 million acres of farmland. U.S. allowable glyphosate limits are 70 times higher than levels some studies suggest are harmful (0.1 parts per billion). The EU’s limit is stricter, but independent scientists advocate for even lower thresholds.

Earth’s water may have originated from its own hydrogen-rich building blocks — not just from asteroids — challenging the long-held theory that water was delivered extraterrestrially. Research suggests hydrogen in early Earth materials could have naturally formed water. A persistent primordial magma ocean beneath Earth’s mantle likely shaped the planet’s geology, forming dense iron-rich melt layers near the core. This ancient structure may still influence heat exchange and tectonic activity today.

The USDA announced reforms to accelerate timber harvesting and mineral extraction on 100+ million acres of federal land, citing national security and economic independence. These reforms aim to increase domestic timber output by 25% and fast-track projects in high-risk wildfire zones. Environmental barriers to mining permits will also be lifted, targeting rare earth metals essential for defense and technology (e.g., cobalt, nickel).

Russia’s internet regulator, Roskomnadzor, issued 214 demands to remove VPN apps from Google Play between March and April. Despite this, Google refused most requests, removing only six apps (e.g., ExpressVPN). The crackdown aligns with a 2024 law criminalizing promotion of tools that bypass censorship, part of Russia’s broader effort to eliminate online anonymity and ban foreign platforms (e.g., Gmail, iCloud) by late 2025.
