Baby girls developing breasts?

As a parent, I tend to worry a lot when it comes to news about tainted milk that kills precious tots. And to have it tainted and caused babies developing breasts is outrageous. You can read the news in this website: http://news.yahoo.com/s/time/20100812/wl_time/08599201004400

Truth will tell whether the company really claim that there is no hormone added when tests were conducted. But my personal opinion is that though there may not be hormone added but the cows that they are farming could have been tainted with bovine hormones which could be damaging for our health. Bovine hormone is used to inject cows in order to increase their milk production.

So many food products are tainted with chemicals because companies want to reap more profits. You have cows injected with hormones to give us more milk or chicken to give more meat and so on. But nothing is about the effects of it on human health. This is what I call unethical.

I think the best choice is to breastfeed our babies and if not we should pay more attention in reading labels and opt for a more natural or organic products. Labels may not tell anything, but it’s the best we can do.
