Glyphosate and Cancer Diagnoses
Roundup® is one of the most popular weed killers in the world and has been produced and distributed for decades. The active ingredient in the product is an herbicide called glyphosate. Although Monsanto – and Bayer, which acquired the company in 2018 – has claimed that the substance is safe to use, recent research suggests otherwise. In 2015, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) listed it as a probable carcinogen, and studies have suggested that constant exposure could increase the risk of a cancer diagnosis.
Glyphosate has been linked to several types of cancers, including:
- Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma
- Multiple myeloma
- Leukemia
- B-cell lymphoma
Recent Roundup® Litigation
After the IARC announcement, numerous claims were filed against Monsanto, asserting that it knew about the adverse health effects associated with its product, but failed to adequately warn consumers.
In California, three separate lawsuits were filed against Monsanto in which the plaintiffs claimed to have used Roundup® for years and were later diagnosed with cancer. The juries in each of the cases found the company liable and awarded the plaintiffs millions of dollars in damages. Monsanto and Bayer face over 10,000 similar lawsuits nationwide.
