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.

Why do they still put msg,sodium nitrite,and trans fats in grocery food items ?

Question by robert d: Why do they still put msg,sodium nitrite,and trans fats in grocery food items ?
I stray away as much as possible from these food items which are technically poisoned. As in,unsuitable or unadvisable for human consumption. Does the fda really think most people are illiterate idiots ? Is that who they are aiming these garbage food products towards ?

If U purchase an ex race horse for horse jumping, do U still need to give the horse growth hormones?

Question by Jorge: If U purchase an ex race horse for horse jumping, do U still need to give the horse growth hormones?
I heard that if humans use steroids, their body will become dependent on PED Growth hormones to perform, ever again. Cuz if you stop using steroids, you'll get super weak super fast - the reverse effect.
Do retired thoroughbreds continue to need steroids to be in the horse jumping competitions? Or can you run them dry?

The vast majority of racehorses are run without the use of steroids. And many jurisdictions are eliminating their use entirely.

All horses who HAVE been on steroid treatment attempting to improve performance will eventually come off of the drugs, and be able to compete without issue WITHOUT the drugs of choice of their piss-poor prior trainers.
