Impact of Glyphosate on Fertility and Reproductive Health
A study from a French infertility clinic found high levels of glyphosate in over 55% of sperm samples, raising concerns about the impact of the common weedkiller on fertility and reproductive health. Researchers suggest a negative impact on human reproductive health and potential harm to future generations, calling for caution in regulation.
