Pesticides linked to up to 70% increased risk of a devastating incurable disease: study

A new study reveals a troubling link between occupational pesticide exposure and a significantly higher risk of developing ALS, a fatal neurological disease. Researchers found that exposure to these farm chemicals may increase the risk by up to 71%. This evidence aligns with observations that cases of this incurable disease have risen steadily over the past three decades, mirroring the steady increase in global pesticide use during the same period of time.
