What Proof Do You Need for a Winning Los Angeles Roundup Lawsuit?

People who are exposed to Roundup have health issues after the exposure. Many times, your exposure to the toxins in Roundup can send you to an urgent clinic, a hospital or to your healthcare provider because these harsh chemicals are likely to make you quite ill. Research studies have reviewed that human biomonitoring of exposure to Roundup shows that it can be found in human urine and plasma in the body, after exposure to the herbicide. One of the powerful active ingredients in Roundup is glyphosate. Glyphosate is used as a herbicide globally, and scientists can monitor the level of dangerous exposures to humans by measuring the amount of the toxin in human saliva, urine and blood.1

The main metabolite, the aminomethylphosphonic acid in glyphosate, can now be monitored to show the level of exposure to Roundup products.1 This means that your healthcare provider can test you and determine your level of exposure to the toxins in Roundup. If your diagnosis to your ongoing medical issues is related to glyphosate and other Roundup chemicals, you are well on your way to “proving” you have medical problems related to exposure to Roundup toxins.

What Are the Symptoms of Glyphosate Toxicity on the Human Body?

The toxic chemical glyphosate can cause serious damage to the human body. The chemical glyphosate can affect the body detrimentally, especially in the areas related to bodily functions for:1

You may need a course of specific treatment to get back to your normal feeling and normal level of health, following exposure to Roundup chemical toxins. It’s okay to call us if you are still being seen by your primary care provider. We will work with you on all aspects of your recovery from Roundup chemical exposure.

How Do You Get Exposed to the Glyphosates in Roundup?

If you used Roundup to kill weeds at your home or business, there is a high risk that you will experience some health problems based on that exposure. The exposure of the chemicals can come from getting it on your skin, having it fall into your eyes or from breathing it in when it is near you or in use around you. You may also accidentally swallow some of the Roundup chemical into your body, of you are eating or smoking near the areas where it was used. Additionally, if you touch a plant that is still wet with the glyphosate spray and then put your hands to your eyes or mouth, you can accidentally ingest these dangerous chemicals.

Roundup Has Been Shown to Increase DNA Damage in Human Cells

The exposure to Roundup has been shown to detrimentally affect human alveolar carcinoma cells. This means that Roundup is positively noted for the development of cancerous cells in the human body. There are many studies that show that the DNA in the human body can be affected by toxic exposure to Roundup. You may not have known that you were exposed to Roundup, because it may have been in an environment where you never saw the chemicals or even smelled them. But that may not matter, as your exposure to Roundup still puts you at a higher risk than the general public for various cancers, on account of inhaling or otherwise being exposed to Roundup in the environment.
