	Hello,
	my name is Stephanie Seneff and I'm a senior research scientist at MIT where I I have been working all my adult life That's been my career path.
	And so my expertise at this point is in nutritional deficiencies and toxic chemicals and their effect on human health, which is a topic I've been working on for the last 15 years or more.
	Well, it's interesting that I it's interesting that I actually, when I first started studying autism, I didn't know anything about glyphosate.
	And I discovered the work of Rosemary Waring, who was an expert.
	She had been treating autistic kids, and she had identified that the autistic kids had a problem with sulfate.
	And I found that really intriguing, and actually I wrote a paper linking autism to sulfate dysbiosis, basically an inability to handle sulfate correctly, as a primary cause of autism.
	I wrote this paper together with a student of mine back in 2012, just before I had discovered glyphosate.
	And then once I discovered glyphosate, which was later in that year, I dropped everything else and started studying glyphosate to see if I could figure out how glyphosate could be causing autism, because I saw the very strong correlation between the rise in glyphosate usage on core crops and the rise in autism in this country.
	It's a perfect match.
	The two curves coincide.
	And so I really felt glyphosate must be a key factor in autism.
	And so then when I did the research on glyphosate and I discovered the potential for glyphosate to disrupt the sulfate system, it became like a home run.
	And I really am very convinced at this point.
	In fact, there was a new paper that came out just in 2021 where they looked specifically at phenol sulfotransferase, which is an enzyme that attaches sulfate to phenol compounds.
	And they found that that enzyme was defective in autistic kids in the gut, in the blood, and in the brain.
	And they also found heparin sulfate, sulfotransferase, was defective in the brain.
	This was very, very exciting to me because I had already known that heparin sulfate deficiency in the brain is linked to autism.
	They looked at autistic people post-mortem and found a deficiency in heparin sulfate.
	And also in multiple mouse models of autism, those mice have deficiency in heparin sulfate in the brain.
	Heparin sulfate is very important for the development of the neurons in early life.
	And so this all makes sense to me as a direct consequence of glyphosate disrupting the enzymes that attach sulfate to important molecules.
	The agrochemical industry has been trying to claim that my idea that glyphosate might be causing autism is false.
	And this has been frustrating for me, of course, but I have just continued to do research in order to exactly understand how the process by which glyphosate causes autism.
	And this has been a mother load of information that has really allowed me to understand In much greater detail exactly what autism is and the effects that take place in the autistic brain as a consequence of glyphosate exposure.
	And I've written a book called Toxic Legacy which goes into detail about my understanding of exactly how glyphosate causes autism as well as many other diseases such as diabetes and obesity and fatty liver disease, kidney disease, Pancreatic cancer, thyroid cancer, blood cancers, all of these things are being caused by glyphosate through mechanisms that are very unique to glyphosate, insidious and cumulative.
	So it's a slow kill.
	Glyphosate is a slow kill and that's part of the reason why we haven't been able to recognize its toxic effects.
	And most people in the country believe that glyphosate is a very safe chemical because the government says it's safe.
	And the government says it's safe because they have been misled by the industry.
	And I think by virtue of not doing adequate testing over the long term, long term testing of the effects of glyphosate is missing.
	And that's how we've been able to not notice its effects.
	It's frustrating for me that when people find that the rates are going up every year and then the excuse is that we're just diagnosing it more, that we have better methods to diagnose it and so more people are being identified as autistic that are missed, or would have been missed in the past.
	And I really feel very upset that this is a way to excuse the problem and to pretend that we don't have a problem.
	It's very frustrating for me that people are not confronting, especially the government, is not confronting the problem.
	It does not seem to be even wanting to spend a lot of money trying to figure out what in the environment might be causing the problem.
	Well, so COVID-19 has really taken the world by storm over the last couple of years, and it has been quite a thing to watch.
	And I, of course, was among many people who were just struggling to understand what was going on.
	Was there an agenda behind the whole program of how we're dealing with this new virus that has appeared across the world, causing people to get sick?
	And then not understanding how to treat it and all of this confusion about the approach to the problem that we face with this epidemic.
	And my impression is that the pharmaceutical industry played a critical role in preventing us from actually dealing with COVID in an appropriate way.
	And I have many friends who are who are medical people, particularly alternative medicine specialists who have found great success in treating COVID-19 with nutritional supplements.
	And so I think in many cases, the person who gets sick from COVID is someone who has nutritional deficiencies and toxic exposure such as glyphosate.
	So we should the government should have been telling us to eat healthy food and to stay away from toxic chemicals.
	Make sure we get plenty of micronutrients and get out in the sunlight because vitamin D deficiency has been clearly linked to bad outcomes with COVID.
	And so the government did none of that.
	They never said a word about anything of that sort.
	And instead, they were just obsessed on the idea that we need to get a vaccine.
	And I think that that was also an agenda that was... They had this message RNA technology that they had been trying to develop for many years.
	And every time they got to the point of trials, it failed.
	This technology failed due to side effects.
	And so they really felt that this was a tremendous opportunity to make money if they could just get it past that hurdle of getting it approved for use.
	And so they took advantage of this COVID-19 and instilling tremendous fear in the population such that people were very eager to take up to accept this vaccine despite grossly inadequate testing of it.
	And for people to, and in fact, for it to be mandated, which is absolutely extraordinary, to force people to take this vaccine against their will in order to be able to keep their job.
	I was just completely astonished that this took place, that all of this unfolded before my eyes.
	I could not imagine how this could be happening.
	And so I took on the task of trying to understand the messenger RNA technology and exactly what it would be doing to your health.
	And I have found incredible evidence that these vaccines are extremely toxic.
	They're actually much worse than the disease itself.
	And I believe we're going to pay a huge price in human suffering as a consequence of this massive program of getting these vaccines into people's arms.
	I found myself in a state of disbelief the entire time as the messenger RNA vaccines were rolled out.
	I never ever imagined that I would actually be in a situation where I myself either had to get the vaccine or lose my salary.
	And this is what happened to me at MIT because MIT mandated the vaccine both for its students and for its staff.
	And I was told that if I didn't get the vaccine I would have to go on unpaid leave.
	And fortunately, I was able to write a request for a religious exemption.
	And MIT granted that request on the condition that I never show up on campus.
	And so as a consequence of that, I actually sold my house in Lexington.
	I mean, in Winchester, Connecticut, and moved to full time to Hawaii.
	We already had two homes.
	One in Hawaii, one in Winchester, Massachusetts.
	And we both decided to leave Massachusetts because we were not allowed to go to work.
	And so we're able to continue our work from home remotely and get paid as a consequence of MIT being willing to accept our religious exemptions.
	Others were not so lucky, and in fact, I was in email correspondence with various people who were complaining to me about their difficulties.
	At MIT, students, young students, who even had symptoms from the first vaccine, and that MIT was not willing to give them an exemption for the second shot as a consequence of, for example, tinnitus in the ear.
	So it was very, very frustrating to me to see how these universities, I'm very, very upset with the universities for now mandating the booster shot.
	to the students and students are our future.
	These are the bright children who are going to help us solve our big, big problems that we face today.
	And we start out by poisoning them with something like a messenger RNA vaccine.
	It just seems criminal to me.
	There's a great deal of difference between the vaccine and the disease in terms of the mechanisms of toxicity that unfold.
	And when you catch COVID-19, it goes into the, it comes into the nose, it gets into the lungs.
	It stays in the lungs if you have a healthy immune system.
	So it needs to get past the barrier, the mucosal barrier of the lungs, and then past the vascular barrier of the blood in order to get into the tissues.
	Whereas when you take the vaccine, it's injected in the muscle past both of those barriers.
	So it has a head start in terms of getting to critical places to affect things like the heart and the brain, I believe.
	And so what happens is that the vaccine has this message RNA that is not at all natural.
	They've modified it by, for example, making all the uridines into methyl pseudo-uridine.
	They discovered this trick that would keep the message RNA intact and prevent it from easily getting broken down.
	They were worried about the vaccines not working because the enzymes would immediately break down the message RNA as soon as it was injected and it wouldn't have a chance to form antibodies.
	So they figured out how to make it sturdy.
	And how to make it also humanize it, to make it look like a human messenger RNA molecule, which fooled the immune system in terms of not reacting when the muscle cells take up that mRNA and they start making this extremely toxic spike protein.
	And they can't stop themselves from making it because of the way the vaccine is designed.
	It's extremely abnormal for a muscle cell to be making this protein that is normally part of a virus.
	And then of course the immune cells come in and eventually they realize these muscles are releasing this toxic poison.
	They come in and then the immune cells actually pick up the vaccine as well and carry it into the lymph system, carry it to the spleen.
	And in the spleen the immune cells then start releasing spike protein packaged up inside little lipid particles called exosomes.
	And those exosomes travel along nerve fibers, particularly the vagus nerve, up to the brain, up to the heart, up to the liver.
	And they damage, they deliver the spike protein to these critical organs that causes an inflammatory response and causes damage.
	So you get myocarditis, you get a lot of heart issues, you get a lot of brain issues in terms of neurodegenerative disease, and you get liver problems.
	All of these things are showing up in the vaccine adverse event reporting system because I've studied it and I've written papers that show these effects of the vaccine.
	So I believe we're going to see alarming increases in heart problems and liver problems and brain problems as a consequence of these vaccines.
	And some of the time it will take a while for it to take effect.
	Also, it disrupts the immune system in such a way that it causes cancer to recur.
	And we're seeing a great deal of evidence of people who had cancer in remission coming back after they get the vaccines.
	And then we have also a lot of cases of autoimmune disease and also blood clots.
	Blood clots that are forming abnormally because the spike protein is a prion-like protein and it can cause misfolding of other proteins and create these very tough blood clots that are very difficult to break down.
	And that can end up with something like pulmonary thrombosis or a stroke to cause brain damage.
	Well it is frustrating for me when I see my friends taking something like a statin drug and then getting the symptoms that I know are caused by statin drugs and then feeling unable to persuade them not to take the drug because they say my doctor prescribes it.
	I have to take what my doctor prescribes.
	So that's very frustrating for me.
	And of course it's true with many other situations that people run into today.
	With the pharmaceutical industry causing them to be sick and they're not willing to recognize that that's the case.
	They're so beholden to pharma.
	They really believe in their doctor.
	The doctor tells me to do something, I have to do it.
	People need to become aware to not trust.
	The pharmaceutical industry and not trust the doctors whose prescriptions are based on the pharmaceutical program.
	And so to step outside of that industry and to take your health into your own hands and to focus on eating healthy food I think is primary, absolutely number one.
	Eat healthy food, get out in the sunlight.
	The sunlight is very healing and provides so much beyond vitamin D that people don't realize.
	So my program for health It's just to buy certified organic food, whole foods, foods that are rich in micronutrients, garlic and onions and spices, herbs and spices, really enrich your food with flavors.
	All of these things are not there just to make it taste good.
	They actually provide very important nutrition that can keep your cells healthy.
	And so that's the way.
	The path to good health does not include pharmaceutical drugs.
	The statin industry by itself is a multi-billion dollar industry and so the pharmaceutical industry is delighted to make sure that people are in fear of high cholesterol and they're willing to take this drug every day for their entire life with the belief, with the false belief that they're actually reducing their risk to heart disease.
	And the problem with the statin drugs, and I have studied them actually in detail,
	By looking at data, drug side effect data produced by the United States government, and I've published papers about this, and there is an incredible list of side effects that statin drugs cause that can be very debilitating in terms of muscle pain, muscle weakness, brain disorders, Parkinson's disease, cancers, all of these things become more prevalent, become more likely to get these problems when you take a statin drug.
	So the chemical industry has a great system in which they produce a lot of toxic chemicals that go into the food industry in terms of the pesticides, the insecticides, the fungicides, the herbicides, all of these chemicals and even the synthetic phosphate fertilizers that go into the food industry making the food sick.
	You eat the sick food, the people get sick.
	The people have symptoms and then the pharmaceutical industry comes in and prescribes drugs to treat the symptoms, but it doesn't get at the underlying root cause.
	And so then you get additional side effects from those drugs that then they say, well, here's another drug you can take to deal with those side effects.
	And you get an incredible cascade at the point where many people are taking 20 or 30 different pharmaceutical drugs to treat all these different conditions that they're suffering from as a consequence of that entire system.
	which works tremendously well to increase the wealth of the pharmaceutical industry.
	The processed food industry really has controlled the messaging for our food And in fact, when you look at the school lunches, I have to say that a friend of mine, Zen Hunnicutt, who founded the organization called Moms Across America, she recently undertook a program of testing public school lunches in the United States for various nutritional deficiencies and toxic chemical exposures.
	And she found that over 95% of the samples were contaminated with glyphosate, some at very high levels.
	And there were also nutritional deficiencies and other chemicals in the food.
	If the government would just take on the project of making sure school lunches are healthy, we would probably see a vast improvement in the health of the children in this country.
	I think one of the reasons why the governments are not addressing this problem is because of the influence of the pharmaceutical industry on the governments.
	They provide enormous amounts of funds to the governments and the governments are then beholden to them.
	And the pharmaceutical industry is very happy to see us sick because then they can prescribe all of these expensive drugs, the patented drugs that they're so fond of.
	filling their pockets with money at the expense of our health.
	And it turns out the pharmaceutical industry and the agrochemical industry are the same thing.
	For example, Bayer, which is a pharmaceutical company, recently bought Monsanto, which is the company that makes glyphosate.
	And I think, in fact, the same company is in some cases producing a chemical that causes a problem and then offering a particular patented drug that treats that problem significantly.
	So they understand, I think, that they're able to cause these illnesses and then to provide drugs that treat them in a kind of a cash cow system that is all based on our failing health.
	Well, the pharmaceutical industry has great control over the media, and so when something is published that is favorable to pharma, the media pick up on it and they make sure that everybody knows about it.
	But if something is published that's not favorable to pharma, the media is silent on it because they are so controlled by pharmaceutical industry.
	We need for the population at large to wake up and to realize that the pharmaceutical industry does not have their best interests at heart.
	And so people need to become aware of the problem, first of all, and then to become aware of the potential solution, which involves making sure that when you buy food, you buy certified organic food, you buy natural foods rather than processed foods.
	You make sure your family is well fed and then you are very suspicious of any pharmaceutical drug that is prescribed.
	You want to actually, there's tremendous resources on the web to look up and to find out what are the side effects of this drug that my doctor is telling me I need to take.
	Do I really want to take this drug?
	To question what the doctor is telling you to do to treat the illnesses that you have.
	And to really be very, to take your health into your own hands by virtue of educating yourself on the need for these nutrients and the healthy foods that are not full of toxic chemicals.
	I'm hoping that I will never be diagnosed with cancer because I eat a very healthy diet.
	I always buy certified organic food.
	We make food from scratch, from whole foods, rather than buying processed foods.
	So I believe this is what has kept me healthy for my entire lifespan.
	And I rarely get sick and I don't go to the doctor.
	I don't even...
	I avoid doctors, particularly doctors that are, you know, traditional doctors because I don't believe in that entire system.
	If I were to be diagnosed with cancer, I would reject the entire, I believe that I would reject the entire system that would be offered to me by the pharmaceutical industry because I do not believe in taking a toxic, you know, chemotherapy All the chemotherapy that people take to try to kill the cancer also kills their own cells.
	Particularly the immune cells are very sensitive to many of these drugs.
	And you're going to hurt your immune system so badly that you're going to catch something else.
	And so you may not, even if you don't die of the cancer, you'll die of a thrombosis or some other problem that the chemical has introduced into your body as a consequence of trying to kill your cancer.
	My husband and I were so fortunate to be able to have a home in Kauai.
	It's such a beautiful island, breathtaking views at every corner, very low traffic, small population, and gorgeous scenery everywhere with so much lush, beautiful vegetation.
	Things grow so easily here because we have the volcanic soil, and volcanic rock has a lot of sulfur.
	You get really healthy water, so the water supply is really, really good.
	So we feel like this is a very healthy environment to live and to stay healthy for a long time.
	So I, you know, it's hard to have hope in a situation that we're in today with everything that's going on.
	But I feel that more and more people are waking up and people like me who are doing the best we can to get our message out despite tremendous censorship.
	I think as more people wake up, And it becomes clear that by changing their ways, they're getting healthier.
	They will spread the word to their family, to their friends.
	And I think we're going to solve this problem grassroots, bottom up, as individuals make the changes in their life to lead a healthy lifestyle involving sunlight and healthy foods and plenty of nutrition.
	More and more people will become aware that the system is broken and it needs to be majorly overhauled and we can, if we have the will, we can do it.
