Dairy Industry by Jo Piechur



Dairy industry

Advertisement companies use pictures of happy cows to lead people to believe that milk can be beneficial such as to strengthen bones ands increasing your calcium intake

But these companies have no scientific proof to back them up we are made to think that cutting milk out of your diet will cause bone thinning but the

Truth is milk isn't good for humans

Many cows are given growth hormones making them produce 10 times as much milk as they normally do plus these hormones have been linked to cancer in harvard's school of public health article cheese and dairy products we're at the top of the list for worst foods to eat cows usually stop producing milk after a year from when the calf was born so they artificially inseminate the cows so they can produce more milk after cows are no longer able to produce milk and they die from physical exhaustion or illness they are sent to a slaughter house

  2. Since I like the taste of milk, I don't want to stop drinking it altogether. However, I may drink less of it now that I know that it may not be too good for me.-Jeffrey
