Letter To The Editor:

What is the truth about our foods .. chicken, pork and the major one, beef? Published reports indicate beef animals are being fed garbage from chicken slaughters. They are also given steroids,  hormones and antibiotics. The latter disturbing our immune systems. They were challenged on this and altered the problem by creating a "synthetic" to push fast growth. The poor animals now have stomach problems and are fed antacids. So what exactly is synthetic steroid if it pushes fast growth the same as the real thing? Did over grazing with too many animals or consolidation to create maximum production and the profit create this awful business? Is all the above creating obese and diabetic people? Some people might be affected more than others having eaten such products. It has already been proven that antibiotics in the animals have endangered our immune systems.
It has taken a few years of the problem to begin to show but it seems the blatant changes are quite evident now. Help! The truth please!
