How Is Roundup Causing Cancer in a Person’s Body?
Roundup is made up of many different compound chemicals, including glyphosates which are used in herbicide production. Herbicides are used extensively around the world to curb weeds and keep crops under control. The problem with the active ingredients in glyphosates are that these chemicals are highly toxic to humans and animals.
When farmers are monitored for exposure to the glyphosates in Roundup, studies show that they have levels of residue of this chemical in their urine.1 This is the result of an occupational exposure of Roundup, which can cause serious illness and cancers in the human body. You can call us at our Los Angeles Roundup law firm to carefully review your personal injury claim after an exposure to the dangerous carcinogenic chemicals found in Roundup herbicide and other cancer causing agents in that product.
