No, not in a significant amount that it would adversely affect the calf or a human.
"Well, you know that your milk with not contain those dreadful hormones that are usually injected or held by other treated cows. Your body will be healthier since it does not contain these hormones."
The liquid secreted during lactation is milk. This is how farmers get milk from cows, by giving them hormones that make them pregnant all the time so they produce lots of milk.
Yes.
Cows are not machines, they are living beings. There are several hormones present in milk that are naturally occurring, and have been occurring in the milk of mammals (not just cows) for millions of years.
the bottle says "no growth hormones"
Yes, if (and only if!!) the milk from these cows are not being used for human consumption.
Springer cows are cows that are just starting to produce milk. Regular cows can be any cow, be they pregnant, lactating, or open (not pregnant).
Drink lots of milk from cows that have been treated with hormones.
the protein called casein is there to feed their young
Not all farmers, no. Only those that are feeding cattle in CAFO operations (feedlot and dairy) that are raised for only beef and/or milk and in those countries that do not prohibit hormones or antibiotics being fed to cattle will be feeding cows hormones.
Many people are allergic to milk. Milk can generate excess mucus; I avoid it during allergy season. Many commercial milks contain residues of antibiotics and hormones that are given to cows. Milk is often produced under conditions that are cruel to cows. Some nutritionists link dairy products to osteoarthritis.
