Drug used for dairy animal in U.S. banned in Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and European Union

“Eli Lilly Sues Company Suggesting Their Hormone Injections Are Unsafe” from Mercola.com 06/06/2017

Way back when I thought milk is milk, beef is beef, no matter where you go. When I experienced the sensitivity to the certain foods, I thought it was the part of aging and never in the million years it was the difference in milk from Japan
and here in U.S. as well as beef, wheat, etc… there is a long list of goods I have to take out from my shopping list.

“Eli Lilly and Co. and its subsidiary Elanco US Inc. filed a lawsuit against Denmark-based Arla Foods, which ran a U.S. marketing campaign advertising their cheeses are made with milk from cows that do not consume recombinant bovine somatotropin, or rBST.13 Elanco is alleging the ads, which ask children what they believe rBST and other additives such as xanthan and sorbic acid are, are an “assault on rBST’s safety.”14

They don’t want consumers to think about the additives in their food that, in the case of rBST (also known as recombinant bovine growth hormone) benefit the producers but not the public. Cows are injected with rBGH to boost their milk production. But science has proven this practice, although profitable to the industry, comes at a high price to you, as well as to dairy cows. Monsanto developed the recombinant version from genetically engineered E. coli bacteria and markets it under the brand name Posilac.

RBGH is the largest selling dairy animal drug in America, but it is banned in Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and the European Union because of its dangers to human health, which include a potentially increased risk of cancer in humans along with medical problems in cows.”
