As a now-retired Horticulturalist/Botanist for the past 36 years, unless you’re eating chemical-soaked soil, I call BS on this.
Really.
I've been working in my vegetable and flower gardens for decades.
Started working on vegetable and azalea gardens with my dad when I was 5 years old.
I'm now 58.
If this stuff were true - I'd be long-dead.
And the human race would also be long-extinct, for that matter...
