    I always heard it was partly due to all the hormones we put in cows to keep them pregnant, and then we drink the milk.

      I thought this too, but yeah, dairy can accelerate puberty, but it’s not the hormones, it’s just that kids that consume more dairy are often fatter which triggers early menache.

      That makes no sense. Hormones in your food will just be broken down in your digestive system.
