Just a few for you there's many many more to look through if you wish to educate yourself.

Nice try, but you fall short. Three of your references are based on the same research article conducted at the University of Michigan. That study has had so many holes shot through it with accusations ranging from fabrication of Organic data and deleting data from the datasets.​

All I did was copy paste a few links for you to start, I do not plan to do your research, I have already done my own, there is many more articles out there, you can read them or no just stating the fact that there are many, I have no control over what articles are printed numerous times, or how they are saved in bookmarks I just copy pasted the first several in that set. If your so sure you are correct why bother looking?

The American Cancer Society is a non-profit organization.

Homeopathic remedies can be helpful for many things, but I don't see them as likely to cure serious illness or cancer. By suggesting that doctors and researchers are only in it for the money is insulting. By insulting the methods that have helped put cancer in remission, have cured people, and have improved quality of life and extended lives all over the world, you are insulting the survivors and the parents who have had to watch their children suffer through the treatments. It's cruel and unnecessary. We can all agree that big-pharma and HMO's have corrupted a system that should be saving lives. That does not justify insulting the thousands of people who have dedicated their lives to medicine.

I believe that there are many more natural and healthy ways to deal with medical problems, I just don't believe that we need to vilify modern medicine to support that idea. There are many aspects of modern medicine that need reform. Some of that reform would seemingly take medicine back in time. Just look at modern obstetrical care. That does not mean that the doctors, nurses, and researchers are evil or bad. Getting angry and insulting is not helping your arguments.

I am glad that your DIL is no longer suffering from a MRSA infection. My daughter got a UTI caused my MRSA. It was terrifying. What did they use to cure it? I would be interested. I also think that a good study should be done to provide some statistical significance to the treatment. Part of the problem with natural cures is that there aren't numbers backing up their effectiveness.

Let me clarify a little more about what I mean. Yes, the ACS is non-profit as an organization. I am not vilifying doctors and researchers in my statement. The direction of their research is large in part orchestrated by pharmaceutical, insurance, and hospitalization corporations. If the non-profit organization was creating the medicine and performing the treatments, it would be lower cost or free to those who need it. Someone is making money, treatment protocols developed by ACS are used to make money. There are relatively few people who have been helped by this medicine than you think including my mother who died at 53. The treatments can be intensive, painful and stressful to the body. Believe me, I am not getting angry with anyone here, and I do not mean to come off as insulting. I am trying to make a point though, be careful in whom you rest faith in. Not everyone is out there to save people, then again, not everyone is out to get rich from sick people either. I do know good doctors whom practice modern medicine who also believe that many aspects of medicine have become get rich scams on a huge scale. Please do not misunderstand what I am saying here. The ACS mission is a good one and many people dedicate their lives to the cause of curing cancers. However, I am forced to wonder what information is squandered as a money making attempt or a threat to current methodology where a new revolutionary treatment would cost jobs and a loss of bottom line dollars. There is simply too much money involved and too few people actually pulling the strings.

Non-profit is a misleading term. It just means they cannot make a profit at the end of the year. The CEO can be paid $10,000.000 a year, and ACS would still be non-profit. Try getting money for rare cancer research from the ACS. I know, my wife had a rare cancer, and people have tried to get them to support research for it, and ACS wasn't interested. If you all remember the United Way scam a number of Years back where they were flying to exotic places on the UW tab? They are still in business as a non-profit, and I would never give them or ACS a dime.

The American Diabetes Assn. told one of their employees that had gastric bypass and had his type II diabetes disappear to not ever say gastric bypass is a cure. Which it is, for some type II patients. I know the person and this is a factual story. ADA is a non-profit, not going to get a dime from me, and I'm diabetic. They are all money making organizations who pay their management very well. Too well. And do little to help. Yes, they do help, but it is not out of the kindness of their hearts.

A lot of things go on that are unsavory in the non-profit world. What makes anyone think Monsanto is more honorable?

Thought I might share some info:
"Some of the fungi promoted by glyphosate produce dangerous toxins that can end up in food and feed. Sudden Death Syndrome, for example, is caused by the Fusarium fungus. USDA scientist Robert Kremer found a 500% increase in Fusarium root infection of Roundup Ready soybeans when glyphosate is applied

According to a report by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization, toxins from Fusarium on various types of food crops have been associated with disease outbreaks throughout history. They’ve “been linked to the plague epidemics” of medieval Europe, “large-scale human toxicosis in Eastern Europe,” oesophageal cancer in southern Africa and parts of China, joint diseases in Asia and southern Africa, and a blood disorder in Russia. Fusarium toxins have also been shown to cause animal diseases and induce infertility.

The same nutrients that glyphosate chelates and deprives plants are also vital for human and animal health. These include iron, zinc, copper, manganese, magnesium, calcium, boron, and others. Deficiencies of these elements in our diets, alone or in combination, are known to interfere with vital enzyme systems and cause a long list of disorders and diseases.

Alzheimer’s, for example, is linked with reduced copper and magnesium. Don Huber points out that this disease has jumped 9000% since 1990. [Institute For Responsible Technology]

The pesticide made by Monsanto is spelled Glyphosate.

You all should check out the old movie Soylent Green!
Soylent Green is a 1973 American science fiction film directed by Richard Fleischer. Starring Charlton Heston, the film overlays the police procedural and science fiction genres as it depicts the investigation into the brutal murder of a wealthy businessman in a dystopian future suffering from pollution, overpopulation, depleted resources, poverty, dying oceans and a hot climate due to the greenhouse effect. Much of the population survives on processed food rations, including "soylent green".

The film, which is loosely based upon the 1966 science fiction novel Make Room! Make Room!, by Harry Harrison, won the Nebula Award for Best Dramatic Presentation and the Saturn Award for Best Science Fiction Film in 1973.

It is good we can all talk about our concerns on this forum.

Glyphosate is a broad-spectrum systemic herbicide not a pesticide.

And that is the problem, you copied and pasted without using any critial thinking skills regarding what was actually said in the articles.

Not quite right.

The Herbicide sold by Monsanto is called Round Up which is their brand of Glyphosate. The patent for Glyphosate expired several years ago, now glyphosate can be purchased from several suppliers under different names. I use Buccaneer Plus which contains glyphosate and surfactants.

Contrary to what has been written here, the use of Pest Resistant corn has actually helped increase trendline corn yield in the USA.

I use traited corn for MY protection and the protection of my crop. With the use of the traited corn I no longer need to use highly toxic Organophosphates to control insect pests in my corn crop.
