I wonder how many dairies are using "rBGH (recombinant Bovine Growth Hormone)".

Portions of a wiki article on Monsanto, "It is a hormone that is injected into cows to increase milk production, causing a number of problems with the milk,raising levels of pus, antibiotic residues, and a cancer accelerating hormone called IGF-1. IGF-1 is a hormone stimulated by rBGH in the cow's blood stream, which is directly responsible for the increase in milk production.

yea i wonder myself,the people who inspect the cattle only do 1% of the herds,even though there was something like 5-6 cows infected with mad cow in a 2-3 yrs.period.....i buy 90% of any meat i get from a market called Whole Foods....they buy from select herds who dont use hormones and they do their own testing for everything......it costs a little more,but i think its worth it.....
