This synthetically produced hormone is not as benign as some would have you think.

The number one point about Bovine Growth Hormone is that there is no need
for it, the farmers don't need it, the cows don't need it, and human health
doesn't need it. The most persistent economic problem faced by the dairy
industry today is overproduction. For the last ten years the dairy surplus
has been over a quarter million tons of milk each year and the government
uses a billion of our dollars every year to sop it up. In fact, the annual
subsidy per American dairy cow exceed's the per capita income of half the
world's population. According to the US Federal Office of Management and
Budget the projected increase in milk production caused by rBGH introduction
will cost American taxpayers an additional $116 million of dollars for further
price supports in 1995 alone.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.msu.edu/~corcora5/food/vegan/BGH.html">
This is yet another example of corporate profits taking precedence over
human health and animal welfare.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/37804365-2BD5-4622-AF8A-1379D8DA7CF6/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
