Below is a quote regarding the health effects of herbicides which are presticides that are most commonly used on plants and agricultural growth.
“The most convincing evidence that herbicides are human carcinogens come from epidemiologic studies. A number of studies have revealed elevated risks of non-Hodgkins’s lymphoma with chronic exposure to herbicides, with the relative risk of developing non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma being 5-6 times the normal risk. In those studies that have examined dose-response relationships, they have found statistically significant increases in the risk of developing non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma with increasing amounts of herbicides used. These are the findings reported by the National Cancer Institute of Canada’s Advisory Committee on Cancer Control and are well accepted relationships between pesticides in populations with common exposures, like farmers and golf course caretakers. Childhood non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma has been shown to be associated with household or garden insecticide use as well as home extermination using pesticides and parental occupational exposure to pesticides.” (www.caps.20m.com)
