Is RoundUp's Main Ingredient Linked to Cancer?

Roundup, a popular weed killer containing glyphosate, is widely used in residential and agricultural settings. However, its active ingredient, glyphosate, has been classified as "probably carcinogenic to humans" by the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). This classification is based on research linking glyphosate to non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and other hematopoietic cancers.

Despite this classification, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) maintains that glyphosate is not carcinogenic. However, their 2020 decision on its safety was partially overturned in court, adding another layer of complexity to the ongoing debate over Roundup's safety.

This conflict between international and national agencies leaves consumers and professionals grappling with conflicting information about the potential risks associated with this widely used herbicide.

What Cancers Are Linked to RoundUp Exposure?

Roundup's main ingredient, glyphosate, has been associated with various cancers. Individuals with the highest exposure to Roundup, such as agricultural workers (gardeners, farm workers, groundskeepers, etc.) and those in related fields (landscapers, turf managers), face an increased risk of developing these cancers.

Cancers potentially linked to Roundup's main ingredient, glyphosate, include:

• Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
• Lymphocytic Lymphoma
• Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)
• B-cell Lymphoma
• Burkitt Lymphoma
• Multiple Myeloma
• Follicular Lymphoma
• Skin Lymphoma
• Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma (PTCL)
• Hairy Cell Leukemia
• Mantle Cell Lymphoma

Did Monsanto Cover Up RoundUp's Dangers?

Roundup lawsuits accuse Monsanto, now owned by Bayer, of misleading the public and regulatory agencies about the safety of its popular herbicide. The lawsuits allege that Monsanto actively concealed and downplayed the risks associated with Roundup's main ingredient, glyphosate, which has been classified as "probably carcinogenic."

Specifically, lawsuits claim that Monsanto:

• Engaged in a disinformation campaign to promote Roundup as safe, despite knowing the potential risks.
  
• Suppressed scientific evidence linking Roundup to cancer and attacked legitimate studies that raised concerns.
  
• Prioritized profits over safety by choosing not to reformulate the herbicide to reduce its potential harm.
  
• Failed to warn consumers and agricultural workers about the potential cancer risk associated with Roundup.
  
• Neglected to adequately monitor the safety of Roundup after it was on the market.

Can You Still Sue Over RoundUp?

Yes. Filing a Roundup lawsuit could potentially provide financial relief for those diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma after using the herbicide. Compensation may cover medical expenses, lost wages, and funeral costs.

It's important to understand that Bayer, the company that acquired Monsanto, has reached an $11 billion settlement to resolve a large number of existing cases. However, this settlement does not cover all potential claims, and individuals may still need to file their own lawsuits to seek compensation.

Past verdicts in Roundup lawsuits have resulted in significant awards, demonstrating the potential for substantial compensation:

• 2018: A California groundskeeper was awarded $289 million, later reduced to $78 million.
  
  
• 2019: A couple was awarded over $2 billion, later reduced to $86.7 million.
  
  
• 2019: Another individual was awarded $80 million, later reduced to $25 million.
