Quick Summary about Our Hormone Imbalance Information

We hope to provide you with many little known facts about hormones in beef in this section. All plants and animals produce hormones. For example, some vegetables are a much greater source of estrogen than beef. You will learn that a serving of cabbage has 1000 times as much estrogen than a serving of beef from a steer that has received an estrogen implant. We explain the truths about growth promotant issues. You will find the reasons are quite different than you might expect. The real issues surrounding the EU (European Union) ban of U.S. beef are discussed. Maverick Ranch rewards producers for using genetic superiority rather than growth promotants. Maverick Ranch tests each beef for both synthetic and normal hormone levels to insure there is no imbalance. The reasons will surprise you: 1. To catch human error 2. To eliminate “non natural occurring” residues 3. To help improve eating quality 4. To eliminate cattle that have altered hormones due to the influence of unknown pesticides and other environmental endocrine distrupters.
