cows. Some studies, however, indicate it may enter the bloodstream when
people drink the milk and cause increased incidence of certain types of
cancer. Some studies also indicate that it may cause health problems in
the cows as well. BST has not been proven harmful. THe problem is that
studies that show that it may be harmful have been overlooked or even
suppressed as the documents show. More studies need to be done before we
can be sure it is safe. As noted, you may already have BST  in your
bloodstream. Maybe you should go back to Poland, or come to Canada.
