1257: Doggy DNA

Roundup Resistance and Soil Recovery

Dr. Zach Bush discussed how Roundup (glyphosate) creates drug-resistant "superweeds" that are actually an extreme effort by the soil to recover its biology. He claims that once farmers stop using the chemical, these weeds disappear within a year as the ecosystem stabilizes. He draws a parallel to human health, suggesting that antibiotics often wipe out the microbiome and lead to worse conditions like cancer.
