Study reveals lasting effects of common weed killer on brain health | ASU News
The researchers tested two levels of glyphosate exposure: a high dose, similar to levels used in earlier research, and a lower dose that is close to the limit used to establish the current acceptable dose in humans. Furthermore, the scientists discovered these symptoms persisted long after a six-month recovery period in which exposure was discontinued. This lower dose still led to harmful effects in the brains of mice, even after exposure ceased for months. While reports show that most Americans are exposed to glyphosate daily, these results show that even a short period could potentially cause neurological damage.
