How many women wind up with breast, uterine, cervical or ovarian cancer from hormones in milk and other foods? It doesn't matter to corporations. For this reason I wrote my book Evil Genius in the Garden of Eden (amazon.com). We have to keep an eye on Horizon Dairy and Whole Foods regarding this milk issue. Thanks to pressure by consumers who care, maybe these corporations will get the message. The only kind of suffering they understand is their own.

Our local dairy feeds their cows only non-gmo grains, so we feel really good about drinking the milk. Maybe some day, all dairies will be gmo free. The science of transgenic engineering is in its infancy, and a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, especially when it affects the world food supply. Few Americans know that 70% of processed foods in this country contain gmo's, and these foods are not labeled - they should at least be labeled, like they are in the EU. We all have a right to know what we are eating. The next step is to get the dairy farmers to stop feeding their cows gmo-based feed.
