If we could keep the PARF stuff out of the regular OT forum, that would be swell.

I've heard that from a couple of veges or vegans I have "partaken of" but have never seen any real studies supporting it. The idea is that hormones in the meat somehow (magically?) pass thru your GI tract intact and add to yours, without being broken down by stomach acids, enzymes, etc.
The irony is that a vegan who reheats her veges in a plastic container (e.g. uwave) is getting a nice load of pthalates introduced into the food, these are known estrogen mimics.
There are tons of contaminants inmost drinking water - people eliminate into a sanitary sewer (if you are lucky!) BUT many chemically active compounds (drugs) are NOT broken down in the sewage plants and wind up in the river, not to mention what ever they do to seafood you eat.
My advice: Do Not Live Downstream.
