Milk From Cows Injected With Genetically Engineered Hormones Makes Twins
New
research shows that consumers
of hormone-tainted dairy products are five times more likely to have
fraternal twins than vegans. In a report published in the current issue
of the journal of Repropductive Medicine, researchers linked
recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH) with this rise in twin birth
rates.
The study shows how rBGH, a synthetic growth hormone used to increase milk production in dairy cattle, increases ovulation in humans and persists in the body after entering via digested food, particularly milk.
Monsanto's controversial hormone has been banned in almost every industrialized country in the world, due to scientific evidence indicating that the milk from injected cows contains more pus, antibiotic residues, and IGF-1, a potent cancer tumor promoter.
