Simple, stop treating symptoms that only enrich BigPharma and ignore root causes, one of the latter being a better diet free of processed food toxins!  And a break from BigProcessedAg!

This makes so much sense, doesn't it?!  A lot less mental health issues, obesity, healthcare cost and better longevity with a sensible change in diet!

That first meme about Bayer,  Monsanto,  and glyphosate is a bunch of bovine scat.  Never has it been shown to be carcinogenic or in any way harmful to humans.   But because of that one groundskeeper out in CA who claimed he got Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma after he used Roundup for many years,   and won a big settlement from Monsanto without any proof of his claim, the floodgates were opened for the ambulance chasing scum lawyers.   
Every day now,  sometimes multiple times a day,  I hear ads seeking plaintiffs in a class action suit: "If you developed Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma after using Roundup/Glyphosate,  call this number.  You may be entitled to a settlement blah,  blah,  blah..."
While glyphosate and formulations such as Roundup have been approved by regulatory bodies worldwide, concerns about their effects on humans and the environment have persisted.[9][10] A number of regulatory and scholarly reviews have evaluated the relative toxicity of glyphosate as an herbicide. The WHO and FAO Joint committee on pesticide residues issued a report in 2016 stating the use of glyphosate formulations does not necessarily constitute a health risk, and giving an acceptable daily intake limit of 1 milligram per kilogram of body weight per day for chronic toxicity.[11]

It was brought on the market and been in use since 1974.   Any ill effects on human health would have come out long before now.

I've always believed different people react differently to various compounds...sure some compounds are dangerous for all, but not everything is dangerous to all and sometimes the mundane for most can irritate some sensitive folks but usually the latter have identifiable conditions and known things to avoid...

Having said that your post prompted me to investigate further, and it appears you are correct...

BTW I loath shyster lawyers, they do far more harm than good...

It appears the promoters of glyphosate causation utilize syllogistic reasoning as a basis for their claim, so I retract the previous image and strike my comments.

But I remain anti-fluoride.

I recall being anti fluoride was a John Birch position.
