Or real science, but enough about you.

ROFL!

Just as I suspected. You got nuthin'. However, you have provided one small contribution.... another lesson for everyone on why arguing with an idiot is a waste of time.

Nope.

IIRC it is Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease, a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy, caused by a prion and believed passed on to a few humans via beef from infected cattle (among other causes including (and not limited to) usage of HGH drawn from the pituitary glands of cadavers who died from Creutzfeldt–Jakob Disease, and infected surgical instruments). Very nasty - I’ve seen it.

‘In theory’, in the US, downer cattle (believed possibly) are no longer fed to cattle in the US., HGH from cadavers is no longer used, and blood donor restrictions have been instituted to prevent transmission to humans.

Believing that adding imitation fruit flavor to your gummy bears makes them nutritious food doesn’t make you a scientist.

Finally! Somebody who understands that cows are not meant to be fed to each other. I was getting lonely.

Is that crackpot idea somehow different from the belief that cows should eat each other’s carcasses and be injected with harmful synthetic hormones?

I was wrong about the fifty lbs. per day. 9-15 lbs of supplement is more like it.

Thank you. I was feeling real bad for any cattle you might have. That’s much better. ; )

The American Farmer has provided our country more food at lower prices than has ever been available in the entire thousands of years history of the world.

No one has even come close. By a factor of 10.

We have so many food riches that consumers can even chose the high priced, low yield, low quality ‘natural foods’. No other country has ever been able to offer such a wide variety for such low prices.

Phthalates are banned in cosmetics in Europe but are allowed in the United States.

They do a lot of things in Europe I'd rather not see done here.

There is also no question that our biologically generated estrone, estrial, estradial, and it metabolites have varying degrees of “strength”, if I may use that term. The same is true of phthalates and phytoestrogens such as soy. Neither of the latter substances come close to having the same kind of kind of effects on the human body as the former. It is more likely that the effects that are cited in the article you posted are from an endogenous imbalance of the many different estrogens and their metabolites (ie the 2-, 4-, and 16-alpha-hydroxderivatives of estrone).
When someone attempts to use such words as “estrogen-like compounds”, “estrogen disruptors” and the phrase “There is no question that hormonal compounds can have effects at extremely low concentrations” alarm bells go off in my head. It tells me that they have no clue as to what they are talking about. It also tells me that they have an agenda which has no basis in scientific fact but are working to reach only a consensus. Consensus, as we have seen in the concept of man-made global warming, is not science at all but politics masquerading as science.

I just read the rest of the posts. Every one posting on this article who works for the EPA or receives grant money from a government, either foreign or domestic, to study the environment please raise your hand.....I thought so.

Besides talking to yourself, were you the only one raising your hand?

My hand was decidedly down. Lots of scare-info being posted here. SOP for the EPA and its minions. And yes I was talking to myself...it’s past my bedtime.

We raise cattle..don’t use any suppliments..just grass fed beef. We raise our cattle this way because its cheaper for us. We don’t spend any $$$ on suppliments.

Here is an interesting article written about early puberty. I believe the early scare puberty thing is kinda like the glo-bull warming scam.
