I've heard growth hormones are fed to livestock, (not all) and in turn can be transfered to eggs or found in the flesh of the animal. What are your opinions on this? Any facts?

There was a documented case in south america some years ago where chickens had been fed hormones and the kids who ate it were developing breasts and menstruation as early as 6. One case was about a little boy who developed breasts and female characteristics.

I don't know if it's really a fact, but here's something pretty shocking.

They are finding patterns like this more often than not and something has to be changing, because clearly we are either evolutionizing, or we're just doing something different. Considering the ridiculous amount of chemicals, vitimans, and hormones put into 98% of food in today's society, I would say that it is more than likely the blame. But we are also using a lot of different chemicals in various things, such as cleaning products, which could also have an effect on humans.
