Does organic milk or regular milk affect how fast we grow?
My sister told me about a survery that had been done about kids who drank organic milk did not grow as fast or hit puberty as fast kids who drank regular milk due to horomones in the milk. Does anyone know about that survery or if's it's true?
Answers:
That depends on whose opinion you prefer. Many U.S. governmental health organizations, including the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the National Institutes of Health, and the Department of Health and Human Services, have reviewed the issue and concluded that milk produced this way is safe for humans. Critics ― citing the possibility of serious health risks ― say that further testing is needed and that FDA approval of the drug was too hasty.
Cows that are given bGH injections are more prone to health problems like lameness, reproductive trouble, and udder infections. When these cows are treated for infections with large doses of antibiotics, some of those antibiotics are likely to show up in the milk, especially because it usually takes longer to treat cows receiving bGH. While antibiotic residues themselves might not be cause for alarm, they can contribute to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, which is a serious, developing public health problem.
Another concern is that injecting cows with bovine growth hormone may cause them to produce more of another hormone called insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). Animal studies suggest that elevated levels of IGF-1 in the bloodstream could increase the risk for some cancers, particularly colon and breast cancers. Government researchers and bGH manufacturers say that the presence of a little extra IGF-1 in milk doesn't put people at any extra risk for developing this cancers because ― just like bovine growth hormone ― IGF-1 is broken down by the human digestive system and never makes it into the blood. But opponents say that other studies show that IGF-1 survives digestion and passes into the intestines.
Organic milk tastes a heck of a lot better! It also supports local farmers and is better for th environment in general!
Also:
No antibiotics
No added growth hormones
No dangerous pesticides
No genetically modified organisms
No artificial flavors, synthetic colors or preservatives
No hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils
They also treat animals a heck of a lot better than the mass production companies do.
im not sure if we can grow fast after we drink some..but I DO know that it helps build strong and healthy bones...
yap its true
Natural things are always best
that is why docs always advise children to take regular milk
