Hi Patty,

Hormones are also in the chickens and non organic dairy products. If you

don't want to give those up, shop for free range chicken or grass fed beef (or

other wild meat)., and organic poultry and produce....I am not a fan of any

meat, but if you know people or companies who raise organic beef or chickens, it

is better than buying from producers who inject hormones and feed genetically

modified corn to animals. I am thinking that children are becomming more

heavy, and girls more developed from the hormones in meats and dairy.

 

When shopping look for organic (fresh, frozen or canned) that is the bottom

line...supposedly the label cannot read organic if it has been modified or grown

with pesticides or any animal by product (such as bone meal). I buy eggs from

a person I know uses feed with no additives and lets his chickens free range.

When I get cheese, I look for the Amish brand...I am sure there are others that

do not use hormones. How about the water you drink..is it filtered, pure or

chemical laden?

 

Baby steps are the way to go.

Hello everyone,

I just joined this group to get advice, suggestions, tips, etc on

being vegetarian. I decided to become a vegetarian after reading a

book explaining about the chemicals that are put into the meat I eat.

I have been taking baby steps towards this transition and so far it

seems to be going well, but there are still a few more steps to take.

I still need to quit eating chicken and eggs.

My name is Patty, I am 42 and I live in Illinois outside of St.

Louis.

I have been going through the past messages for information, but any

suggestions are welcome.

 

Patty
