What is the truth about Chickens and Eggs? Hormones and Our Food?
No hormones? This label is misleading and strictly used as a marketing gimmick. Cutting straight to the facts - FDA prohibits the use of hormones in chickens. All eggs and all chicken products are always hormone-free.
A "no hormone" label means no synthetic hormones were added, however the term is misleading. Animals produce hormones naturally! Additionally, the label is redundant because adding hormones are illegal and not allowed by the U.S. Government. For beef, it signifies no growth hormones were used, but doesn't cover using antibiotics!
Better labels to look for are Organic, Certified Humane, and Grassfed. Also note that the term and/or fake label stating, "No Hormones" isn't approved by the USDA, because all animals naturally produce hormones.
