rBST hormone in cows
There is a hormone called rBST that (as I understand it) occurs naturally in cows milk but many farmers inject this hormone into the cows udder to increase milk production. This causes cancer in humans. I would like to know if you know of any milk or brand that guarantees that they check for this is their milk and do you have an opinion about it?

I must admit that I do not know of a brand of milk which is guaranteed to be free of hormones. Try phoning Woolworths and ask if they are able to give such a guarantee.
