The other argument is that teh scientists aren’t even willing to admit they don’t know everything.

The idea that food is nothing but basic elements such as carbon, glucose, and so forth is short sighted IMO. They really have no idea what the hormones in the animal do to people. However there is evidence of problems up to and including cancer.

MSG, Splenda, aspartame, and growth hormones were all labeled as safe by the food industry but are known to cause problems with some people.

Right. You get ten times more glutamate from naturally occurring sources than you do from added sources. You could not survive without glutamate. You probably have 3-4 lbs. of glutamate inside you right now. Exactly what problems is this causing you?

Splenda/Sucralose isn't metabolized by your body so how could it cause any issues? The imagination is an incredible thing.

Aspartame is made up three things. There is more of each of these three things in a banana than there is in a can of diet Coke. If aspartame in a diet Coke is bad for you then so is a banana.

Growth hormones from animals do not survive digestion in humans. Even if they did, the growth hormone receptors in humans do not recognize bovine growth hormones, so they are unable to produce any effects in humans.

You fear things you don't understand. Why you insist on regularly advertising that fact here remains a mystery. Just add GMO to the list.
