Since GMO crops entered the U.S. food supply in 1996, the weedkiller sprayed on them has climbed more than fifteenfold. Over the same years, rates of dozens of chronic diseases rose sharply. The charts below plot the two, side by side.
Each chart overlays a documented disease trend — drawn from U.S. government data (CDC, USDA, and the SEER cancer registries) — against the amount of glyphosate applied to American corn and soybean crops. Read them together and a pattern is hard to unsee: as glyphosate use climbs, the rate of one condition after another climbs with it, often in near-lockstep.
These correlations were compiled by independent scientists, including Nancy Swanson, PhD, and Stephanie Seneff, PhD, of MIT. Some are extraordinarily tight, with correlation coefficients as high as 0.97 — a degree of agreement rarely seen in public-health data.
Correlation coefficients are calculated against glyphosate applied to U.S. corn & soy (USDA). Correlation does not prove causation — but combined with animal studies, biological mechanisms, and recovery data, the evidence is compelling. Sources: CDC, USDA:NASS, SEER.
A word of caution: correlation is not causation. Two lines rising together does not prove that one causes the other. We say so plainly — because it’s true, and because the companies that profit from these chemicals count on that phrase to end the conversation.
But correlation is where nearly every major public-health discovery begins. It is the smoke that tells you where to look for fire. And when these trend lines are set beside the other evidence we track — controlled animal feeding studies, the independent observations of doctors and farmers, thousands of documented recoveries, and the known biology of how glyphosate disrupts the body — the pattern stops looking like coincidence.
That is why we show you the charts: not to frighten you, but to hand you the same data the scientists are looking at, so you can weigh it for yourself.
Every condition here has a full evidence review — and a clear, proven path to lowering your exposure. Start with the science, or start with your plate.
