Steve Wilson:
One of the first stories that Jane came up with was the revelation that most of the milk in the state of Florida and throughout most of the country was adulterated with the effects of bovine growth hormone.
Jane Akre:
With Monsanto, I didn't realise how effectively a corporation could work to get something on the marketplace. The levels of coordination they had to have. They had to get university professors into the fold. They had to get experts into the fold. They had to get reporters into the fold. They had to get the public into the fold and of course the FDA, let's not leave them out. They had to get the federal regulators convinced that this was a fine and safe product to get it onto the marketplace. And they did that, they did that very, very well. The federal government basically rubber stamped it before they put it on the marketplace. The longest test they did for human toxicity was 90 days on 30 rats. And then either Monsanto misreported the results to the FDA, or the FDA didn't bother to look in depth at Monsanto's own studies.
Steve Wilson:
The scientists within Health Canada looked very carefully at bovine growth hormone and come to very different conclusions than the Food and Drug Administration in the U.S. did.

with the effects of bovine growth hormone
00:00:12.032 --> 00:00:16.998

00:00:16.064 --> 00:00:18.009
could work to get something on the marketplace
00:00:18.009 --> 00:00:21.016
The levels of coordination they had to have
00:00:21.044 --> 00:00:23.091
They had to get university professors into the fold
00:00:23.091 --> 00:00:25.091
They had to get experts into the fold
00:00:26.024 --> 00:00:28.012
They had to get reporters into the fold
00:00:28.016 --> 00:00:29.099
They had to get the public into the fold
00:00:30.998 --> 00:00:31.092
and of course the FDA lets not leave them out
00:00:31.092 --> 00:00:33.075
They had to get the federal regulators convinced

00:36 I ask myself often times why
00:36 And this time they freaked
00:37 Originally Wal Mart and Kathy Lee Gifford had said
00:28 So what wanted to do is to look at the very roots
