Lets shed some light on the implant issue. The information I will present is from AS 241 - Meats: Production to Consumption as taught by Duane Wulf Professor of meat science at South Dakota State University.

There is 58% more estrogen in implanted beef vs. non-implanted beef. That is there is 1.2 nanograms of estrogen in non-implanted beef vs 1.9 nanograms of estrogen in implanted beef. Lets take a look at this relatively. Estrogen production in the average male is 136,000 nanograms of estrogen/day. Average female is 200,000 to 1 million nanograms per day and the average pregnant woman produces 4 to 6 million nanograms of estrogen per day.

Now lets look at estrogen in other foods... cabbage has 2,700 nanograms of estrogen per serving. Peas have 454 nanograms per serving of estrogen and soybean oil has 28,370 nanograms of estrogen per serving.

Doesnt look like much a deal there does it?
