Is your beef safe? 🥩 Whether it’s from implanted or non-implanted cattle, the answer is YES. ✅
The use of hormone implants in cattle are strictly regulated, and research shows no meaningful difference in the safety or the estrogenic activity of the beef you eat. It all comes down to choice, not risk.
