> What about the hormones in the milk? Tax non-organic milk. (sarcasm)

I did a research paper on bovine milk. Its pretty amazing the hormones that are found in a percentage of milk. The main one is IGF-1 which helps the cows produce more milk. The bovine IGF-1 is identical to the human version which is commonly used as a steroid. People are using anabolic steroids without even knowing although the amounts are small which means you would have to drown yourself in milk daily to see any results. Its just the fact that it is found in the milk and there is no way to filter it out. I guess that’s what will happen when you introduce business strategies to agriculture.

I still love me a nice glass of milk though:)
