This is awful. And it's in almost everything.

Glyphosate Factsheet
http://www.mindfully.org/Pesticide/Roundup-Glyphosate-Factsheet-Cox.htm

I found this very interesting. I had a baby in June that was due in July (4 weeks early) this year. I had a problem with premature labor to the degree of having to take off from my job early and getting a brethene shot to stop the labor. My midwife told me that all of her July pregnancies were having similar problems. I quit using Round Up around my home over a year ago, but I got caught behind a spray truck for the road I think around the time I started having problems with contractions. Also, I wonder how much of our food has glyphosate in it. And I wonder if spring spraying containing glyphosate may have had an impact on many pregnant women around the same time.
