Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 I am so angry about the laws that are not wanting people to know if they are getting dairy products from cows that have been treated with the synthetic hormone rBGH. I know it is a natural hormone in cows, just as estrogen is a natural hormone in women. I just don't want any extra added synthetic hormones. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a site that might list some products that are using hormone free dairy products? I drive a lot of miles to get organic dairy products and it would be nice to know if there are companies making healthy products and not being able to list the fact that they don't use this drug? If anyone knows some packaged products that do not use this drug would you print them on this site? I've been emailing a lot of companies to ask if they use dairy from cows treated with this drug and the majority do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 you are buying raw cow milk is that correct if so iam sorry to say this but unless you own the cow that the milk is coming from is the only way to know for certain if not its going to be verry difficult to find out but not impossible if the people are honest with you about if the milk does or dosent have the hormones then you may know the truth good luck > pepperwatsonblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 No, I'm not buying raw milk. I get mine at a large grocery store and it comes in glass bottles and is labeled organic and also no added synthetic hormones. I have to pay for the glass bottle but return it when I buy my next bottles and so after the initial cost of the bottles they are free. It's delicious milk but I have to drive sixty miles to get it. I hope that in our so called free country they will be able to continue to carry it. It is worth the drive. I've been researching this rBGH drug and it sounds like a lot of people are wanting rid of it, even the farmers because it is causing problems with their cows. All the other industrialized countries have already banned it. Monsanto is losing money like crazy but fighting to keep the United states in the dark. , " pepperwatsonblue " <pepperwatsonblue wrote: > > > you are buying raw cow milk is that correct if so iam sorry to say this > but unless you own the cow that the milk is coming from is the only way > to know for certain if not its going to be verry difficult to find out > but not impossible if the people are honest with you about if the milk > does or dosent have the hormones then you may know the truth good > luck > > > pepperwatsonblue > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 Fortunately Health Canada has banned the use of rBGH in our dairies as well as a few other countries. Here is some more info on the subject. Perhaps you could persuade your gov't representatives to change the law in the U.S. http://www.foodrevolution.org/askjohn/22.htm <http://> > > I am so angry about the laws that are not wanting people to know if > they are getting dairy products from cows that have been treated with > the synthetic hormone rBGH.

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 >>>>>>>>Currently, neither milk made with rBGH nor any other genetically engineered food product in the United States, is labeled.<<<<<<<< This statement in the article is not correct. There are many many non GMO products in the US and are labeled as such. There are also several brands of milk on the market that are free of rBGH and are marketed as such. , " earthmother1111 " <pink627 wrote: > > Fortunately Health Canada has banned the use of rBGH in our dairies as > well as a few other countries.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 Marina, Can you list a few of the many non GMO products in the US that are labeled as such, and also what brands of milk on the market are free of rBGH and are marketed as such? I found out that ReddiWip is hormone free and so we are getting to enjoy whipped cream more now that I don't have to make it from the hormone free cream that I buy. Guess I am lazy but it would be so nice to be able to buy some healthy foods that do now require a lot of work. I am able to buy some delicious real butter that is organic from the store where I get my milk. If only I didn't have to drive so far to get it. I am a twenty one year breast cancer survivor and my doctor (my dad) told me way back then to avoid anything estrogen. I research constantly trying to avoid estrogen and it's procurers. I know that there is a big increase in the hormone related cancers in younger people since they have started using this drug and Monsanto knows it too, but since the rest of the world is banning it they are losing billions of dollars, and dollars are their bottom line. I really wish there was a way to convince our government to protest us more from the big pharmaceutical companies. I would love to be able to live in Canada. , " Marina " <AmSassy_2 wrote: > > > >>>>>>>>Currently, neither milk made with rBGH nor any other > genetically engineered food product in the United States, is > labeled.<<<<<<<< > > This statement in the article is not correct.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I have found out that Miss Swiss products are free of the rBGH drug, and so is Ben and Jerry ice cream. I'm hoping to find more and more things that I can buy and enjoy eating. , " oobagah " <oobagah wrote: > > Marina, > Can you list a few of the many non GMO products in the US that are > labeled as such, and also what brands of milk on the market are free > of rBGH and are marketed as such? > I found out that ReddiWip is hormone free and so we are getting to > enjoy whipped cream more now that I don't have to make it from the > hormone free cream that I buy.
