Study: Glyphosate is creating superbugs

The world’s most-used herbicide can encourage the growth and spread of bacteria resistant to medical treatments, according to a new study published in Frontiers in Microbiology. The evidence cited indicates that exposure to glyphosate kills weaker strains but allows stronger strains to thrive and potentially become ingested by humans through contaminated food and water. They can make common infections more difficult to treat and increase the risk of serious illnesses.
