Humans are also susceptible to several prion diseases:
1. Acquired infection (diet and following medical procedures such as surgery, growth hormone injections, corneal transplants) i.e. infectious agent implicated.

They are still using "growth hormone" in cattle. That raises a flag, wouldn't you think?

Oh, and thanks for all that information. I appreciate it.

I raise cattle myself. (Well actually just starting. I've only got a small start of a herd at this time, but I'm expecting a few calves anytime now and my herd is growing however slowly ;) But my cows are eau natural, all the way. I only feed rolled corn and oats 3 weeks before I butcher, other wise it's grass, hay and well water).

I know slow growth hurts being competitive; but those hormones are not suppose to be in our food.

Did you see the thread I wrote yesterday?
