The "Skinny" on rBST laced Lattes!

The following is from the book, Science Left Behind - Feel-Good Fallacies and the Rise of the Anti-Science Left, by Alex B. Berezow and Hank Campbell

"One day, co-author Alex was in a Seattle coffee shop that proudly and prominently displayed the fact that it used only rBST-free milk...Contrary to what its name might suggest, injecting cows with this hormone simply makes them produce more milk, instead of growing into super-sized cows.

"Alex was curious why rBST-free milk was such a big deal to this cafe owner, so he asked. 'A little intemperately she responded, 'Do you know where milk comes from?' Stunned by her condescension to a paying customer, Alex (a PhD in microbiology) patiently listened as she went on a diatribe about how hormones injected into the cow ultimately end up in the milk. She insisted that these nasty hormones were bad for human health - and she wouldn't be caught dead serving lattes with rBST milk.

"...everything the cafe proprietor said was factually incorrect. The most obvious problem with her argument is that everything,  from vegetables to meat, has hormones in it - the label 'hormone-free' is completely bogus. Also, if you're reading these words, you are not a cow. Humans do not respond to cow growth hormones. According to researches at Cornell University, you could inject BST directly into your veins and nothing would happen."

This is just a very short excerpt from this fascinating book. The rest of the book is just as good!
