Why is the FDA still allowing growth hormones to be used in our food?

Question by Stellar: Why is the FDA still allowing growth hormones to be used in our food?
Why not ban the use of Bovine Growth Hormones (rBGH) altogether? I mean now a days the trend is to be "environmentally friendly, buy "organic" food etc. so why is the FDA still allowing the use of growth hormones? Do we really need it?

Plus, a lot of grocery retailers are now supposedly against rBGH, and it's already banned in places like Canada,Japan,New Zealand.

I've been researching this for a project, if I'm wrong with any info provided just let me know, please.

You need to do more research.

You are only looking at one side of the argument.
