

Many Humans are steering away from cow’s

One Reason : #1 Food allergy
Secondly: Personal Choice (Vegans)
Another Reason: Lactose Intolerant
How Many Affected?

(BGH)






Genetically engineered Hormone
Used by farmers to increase milk productions
Decreases the body fat of cows
Causes an increase in breast infections in
cows which must receive additional antibiotics
Identified as the single-most causative factor
of obesity epidemic, and the link to heart
disease
Increase IGF hormone
Insulin-like Growth Hormone
(IGF)
Most powerful growth hormone produced in a cow's
body (and found in cow's milk)
 Identical to the most powerful growth hormone in the
human body.
 Key role player in fueling growth
 Proliferation of breast, prostate, and lung cancers.
“..Aids human breast cancer cells in maintaining their
malignancy, progression, and invasiveness”

pus cells that can be sold in milk. One liter of
American milk may contain no more than:
a) 75 hundred pus cells
b) 75 thousand pus cells
c) 75 million pus cells
d) 750 million pus cells
