"Pregnant women eating beef from cattle treated with growth-promoting hormones could well endanger their children's future fertility. . . men from the US whose mothers ate beef at least once a day during pregnancy are likely to have lower sperm concentrations than usual, potentially affecting their ability to have children. . . .This could be due to anabolic steroids and other hormones widely given to American cattle to promote growth, which might have side-effects on the sexual development of unborn male fetuses. It could also be due to pesticides and other environmental contaminants."I reckon you get essentially the same stuff from chickens & pigs.
