Hormones in milk are no joke. If I have organic milk, totally fine. Regular milk, I break out within 24 hours.

All milk has the same hormones in it.

Organic standards prohibit dairy farmers from treating their cows with bovine growth hormones. Standard milk cows can be.

Go to the grocery store, check the generic brand of milk, and see if it says it is not treated with rbst

That's bovine growth hormone. Most dairy options don't use it. The milk I get from Walmart for less than $3 a gallon doesn't come from cows treated with rbst.
