5. Organic Dairy Products

Products from dairy animals raised organically do not contain antibiotics and artificial hormones. Antibiotic resistance is a major heath concern these days, and part of the reason is because antibiotics are commonly used in the animals that our meat and dairy products come from. Antibiotics are routinely added to poultry feed and food for dairy and meat animals.

Commercial, non-organic dairy animals are routinely injected with hormones that increase their milk production. As a result these hormones, which can cause disruption of human hormone cycles, are found in the products produced from their milk. This may result in premature puberty and hormone disruption-related illnesses, including breast cancer.
