*Choose Organic fowl and livestock because they

--Cannot be fed antibiotics.

--Must be given only organic feed, which does not contain ground-up animal products, linked to outbreaks of "mad cow" disease in Britain and Europe.

--May not be fed growth hormones. Organic dairy cows are NOT given recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH).

--Must be raised under humane conditions.

*Choose nonfat milk and less fatty cuts of meat and poultry, as pollutants collect in animal fats.
