Has an impact on everyone, but especially on those with compromised immune systems and those with candida/yeast.

And I'll tell something else bad about roundup. It will kill non target plants in the vicinity of a sprayed area, and make other plants more susceptible to disease by chelating the minerals that the plants need. That is, it ties them up so the plant can't get them from the soil. So, it becomes less healthy, and various diseases then can kill it off.
Bad stuff. Don't believe what the label says.

We are going down a very bad precipitous path.

Wow this is scary. Who doesn't eat chicken? Botulinum is the scariest food-borne illness there is - and we're growing it in chicken guts by feeding them GMO corn and soy?
Well, what about OUR guts?
Round up - THE main companion herbicide for Genetically Modified Soy, Corn, Cotton and Canola.
And they're using MORE of it, because the GMO plants can tolerate it! I have seen reports that we are creating "superweeds" with this stuff.

I've been using Roundup the past 2 years to control weeds and brush in my yard. What's a good alternative?
Really need to start changing my diet too. Will have to check out prices on non-GMO products at Earth Fare and see what I can afford. Sure is some scary stuff TuTu.

I don't like herbicides. They kill everything.
Some folks cover areas of their garden with black plastic - others use gravel. Then there's always weed whacking or good old fashioned pulling.
I've heard some folks have success using salt - but I've never tried it.
