I think the point Neil is trying to make here is that humans willingly ignore that everday things we cosume have the potential to be fatal but we freak out over trace amounts of stuff all the time.

Not gonna lie, that punchline with the sucrose killed me

Something that my Chemistry and Forensics teacher said to me that still resonates, is that the poison is in the dosage.

The problem isn't glyphosate's LD-50. The problem is that it's an endocrine disruptor and has been linked to certain cancers. It doesn't have to kill you to be damaging.

That’s why I always put lead in my food. As long as it’s not near the LD50 I’m good

Neil's friend: Do you want ice cream?

This reminds me of the gaming clip “if I ate 30, 000 bananas I’d die of radiation” “oh yeah, the RADIATION would kill you”😂😂

Hi guys, toxicology student here;
So 1) LD50 is usually tested on animals like rat because, well, can't really do human studies on that, can you?
2) just because you don't immediately die from it, it can still cause health issues and LD50 by nature of the experiment mainly just looks at the immediate effects

I think that the concern for glyphosate is that it is an endocrine disruptor that fucks with your hormones. Not because it kills you.

What Tyson ignores is the fact that the LD50 is not the concern here. Rather, the concern lies with the severe carcinogenic and mutagenic effects of the trace chemical.

LD50 is a measure of acute toxicity not chronic, which is what got round up in hot water

The bigger problem here is, that Glyphosate might cause cancer

The question really isn't if the amount of glyphosate is deadly, more so a question of how much glyphosate causes problems with hormones and or other parts of the human body.

Cancer is the problem Neil, not the risk of overdose

There's an LD50 for dog crap too, but I don't want traces of that in my ice cream either.
