Is Glyphosate weed killer safe??

I thought it wasn't absorbed across the gut wall in the first place and is
excreted unchanged.


Could be, I have no data on it.

A websearch is your friend (if you can be bothered).

What tests have been done to establish glyphosates reaction to other chemicals within the environment ?

If the product is so safe, why are users required to dress like spacemen when applying it ? Whats the difference between the council worker spraying the product on the side of the road compared to the pregnant lady with her 3 year old child who walk down the same stretch of road minutes after the sprays application ?

How do we know the required "Withholding period" is a safe enough period before exposure - Did frogs stop having 3 headed off-spring that far into the testing process - so it was considered safe ?

What evidence is there that the product Does not cause liver, kidney, lung thyroid or pituitory damage ?

How can a product designed to KILL be considered safe at ANY strength level ?

We can now enter many clubs & pubs without being suffocated by smokers. What measures are in place for those who have done their research and know the downside of glyphosate and other agricultural and horticultural chemicals so we do not come into contact with them in society ?
