Is the extra hormones they are putting in chickens or any processed food effecting us by making our hormones develop faster?

Not sure bovine & poultry hormones can make humans over-develop, but can't imagine they're good for us either. Although a little different, steroids are hormones too & look at the havoc they cause when misused. Cancer, weird physiology changes & sexual problems, etc.

yes I believe it does make a difference, but then again I'm no scientist. How else do you explain the earlier onset of puberty in children, and don't say evolution because that's a cop-out.

Yes and it's not just the hormones but also all the sugar and saturated fat and chemicals. A lot of those little gems are helping create and sometimes causing cancer

yes i think it does. girls are starting their periods earlier and earlier. 'they' say its because of better nutrition, but i seriously have my doubts on that theory. i think these hormones that are being used are finding their way into our bodies and into our enviroment.

Agree, doubtful. There are so many theories. Another one is obesity. Heavy girls seem to start their periods before slimmer girls. But it may be the hormones helping girls (and boys) gain weight too soon. Milk & dairy products are being looked at more closely now.

Absolutely! As stated above girls are developing extremely early. 9/10 year olds getting periods, developing breasts, all due to over abundance of hormones in food and milk.
