Just some thoughts of course, but who knows.
Milk, no matter how much or how little we're drinking, be it in coffee or cereal, or by the gallon, we're consuming a growth hormone, which for instance "human growth hormone will cause epidermal keratinocytes, which basically causes thickening of the skin, due to a more rapid cellular turnover....which is why some get the HGH shots, stimulates the pituitary gland in humans.
Now "BHG" the cows hormone that is produced and injected into cows for greater milk production, WE are also ingesting that.
The Bovine growth hormone, used to increase milk production in cows:
What is rBGH?
Recombinant Bovine Growth Hormone is a genetically engineered copy of a naturally occurring hormone produced by cows. Manufactured by Monsanto Company, the drug is sold to dairy farmers under the name POSILAC, though you'll also find it called BGH, rBGH, BST and rBST. When rBGH gets injected into dairy cows, milk production increases by as much as 10-15%. The use of rBGH on dairy cows was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in late 1993 and has been in use since 1994.
And this on that.
Some consumers suspect that this hormone, even if not harmful, at least detracts from the purity of milk. Such skepticism hasmany sources, ranging from a desire to protect children and an uneasiness about nature-altering biotechnology, to the underlying apprehension that life-sustaining gifts of
agriculture are becoming polluted by chemistry.
