Is there proof that using antibiotics in meat animals is the culprit for any disease? Anyone afraid of beef ? Don't eat it but don't use fairy tales to scare others away from a perfectly good and safe protein source. Not all cows are in the food chain. No cows [which are older cattle that have had calves] are in feedlots. Old cows old bulls are made into hamburger, luncheon meat or hotdogs. These cattle do not grade choice or even select.

Most of the antibiotics given are given to dairy cows for mastitis after they calve. Their milk is not suitable for human consumption but it is fed back to their own and other calves. After they are well they are still milked and then you are drinking that product.

No one really cares what other people eat unless they don't want them to eat it or they want to explain whatever physically ails them. All the beef in this country is federally inspected before and after its processed. Read The Jungle by Upton Sinclair if you want to read about what people ate 100 years ago. Antibiotics are expensive most would not want to use them on food animals unless they thought it was necessary.

If you are afraid of antibiotic- resistant diseases tell Drs to stop over prescribing it for humans. Don't think Drs over prescribe drugs? Then you are not watching television or reading the pamphlets laying all over the Drs office or in the backs of magazines If people want to be healthy they should quit taking the 10 different medications they are prescribed and eat a healthy diet and get off their fat asses and exercise.[please disregard if you have a genetic or acquired disease] [ Acid reflux for example is not a disease it is a symptom of eating the wrong foods or drinking the wrong things.

You can get a drug for acid reflux then to counteract the drug you take for indigestion they give you something else. If you can't sleep you get a drug to sleep and then one to wake up and one to feel better about yourself and one to stop the voices talking in your head probably from using acid reflux pills in the first place.

Tardive Dyskenisia is a common side effect of certain drugs! It may or may not be permanent. That is in a drug ad? WhoTF would take that drug? Lots of people and then they want to blame the food industry for their problems.

I heard this as a child. It describes how so many live nowadays just change the critters to drugs.
