Glyphosate, pathways to modern diseases II: Celiac sprue and gluten intolerance
- BGthaOG 7y ago3 quotes from the discussion (Section 15): (1) "In this paper, we have developed an argument that the alarming rise in the incidence of celiac disease in the United States and elsewhere in recent years is due to an increased burden of herbicides, particularly glyphosate exposure in the diet." (2) "A recent estimate suggests that one in twenty people in North America and Western Europe suffer from celiac disease (Koning, 2005; Fasano et al., 2003)." (3) "Table 2 summarizes our findings relating glyphosate to celiac disease. All of the known biological effects of glyphosate – cytochrome P450 inhibition, disruption of synthesis of aromatic amino acids, chelation of transi- tion metals, and antibacterial action – contribute to the pathology of celiac disease."
