Of course they don't have any links, because studies proving this don't exist. Another little known fact: even _human_ growth hormone is utterly pointless to consume orally: it gets destroyed by stomach acid. That's why people who take it go through the trouble of injecting it.

I also don't think I've ever seen dairy in store that doesn't come from cows "not treated with rBST". I don't buy organic unless the price is roughly the same, and for milk it's easily double, so I don't buy organic milk.

But even if it did boost igf-1 a tad, that'd be freaking great. People would start growing muscle, losing weight, etc.
