from why I have read, genetically altered food can affect the genes of young children and is really not good for anyone. But it does have more affect on children who are developing and can affect your harmones by reducing fertility rates and reducing testosterone in men, effiminizing them.

Tonight I've discovered, Raw or organic, Milk still has too much growth hormone & the possibility of Mad Cow. Our country calls it Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, etc. (see Scripps.edu study) but the govt can't say that, too much money at stake, but if the rest of the western countries have it, why don't we? the way they test the cows has a lot to do with it. After all this research and so many vids supporting the facts, I think milk isn't worth the risk for my family. it's worth a change in taste.

@CRFCat While I don't think milk is gross (that is up to ppl's taste), I don't drink milk b/c i am allergic to it, and prefer, in general, hazlenut milk or hemp milk myself. But yes, there are many many non-dairy options, and its not hard to make your own nut milks either. :) If I could drink milk, I would drink organic raw milk b/c most of the nutrients are taken out through pasturization.

Americans need to protect themselves, because government Food and Drug Administration is totally lobbied by corps especially like Monsanto!

Lobbyists! are criminals trying to get (corrupt) officials doing what is in the Lobbyists/Corporations interest and NOT for the good of the people!

get your facts right!

Almond MILK tastes a LOT better and is nothing but healthy for you so why drink this cow shit antibiotic tortured animal milk? It's sooooooo friggen out dated. People need to wake up and move on. Milk is gross.

[CRFCat]

This explains also why people who drink milk and eat too much dairy have acne. Kids, adults, everyone. Those more sensitive or who have even slightly compromised immunity will indeed find themselves with acne if they consume dairy. We use almond milk and it doesn't break our skin out like cows milk did.

and human and rbst is in all milk! not just the milk from cows being treated with rbst!the chemical composition is the same tested over and over again.this is just plain misleading and i belive has a organic campain!

[dryfrmboy]

dairymen become greener and sustainable thu rbst use.also being a dairymen my self i can say many cows on all farms have mastitis and all farms with the exception of organic farms use antibiotics . ALL anti biotic milk is throw away and all milk is exstensivly tested before being processed to assure no antibiotics are in it.also hormones such as rbst with is a protein are in every plant animal
