Recently in the local paper an article appeared about Meijer and Spartan milk going "hormone-free."
My knowledge of our food chain is limited. I go to Meijer for neat, prepare packages of food, take it home, and eat. Not sure of the sources, but I have heard info about artificial growth hormones in our food. The story that sticks out in my mind is that it causes early maturity in girls...not for my Baby LJ!
So what's the deal? Here's interesting sites on the topic:
- This organization seems to be working on some worthy "right to know" causes, but I found this article on bio solids. I'd be interested in my moms opinion, as she's in the "business."
- Whether you agree with what they say, support our right to know where our food comes from.
- I found this article humorous, but offers another perspective.
- Need to dig around here...if YOU find anything good, let me know!
I tend to believe research needs to be LONG term to trust that you know what you and your family are being exposed to. So better to be cautious, right?
