By labeling milk free of the artificial hormone, the dairy industry can ride the popularity of natural foods, without the greater expense and special feeds required to produce milk that can be fully certified as âorganic.â.
Under the National Organic Standards, organic dairy animals may not be given rBGH. Although 365 Everyday Value Milk is not organic, it is produced by dairy farms committed to the production of milk that does not contain the synthetic growth hormone rBGH.If a cow does require antibiotics it is taken from the herd and quarantined until the antibiotics have passed through her system.65 and 365 Organic Everyday Value Milk, Cheese, Yogurt, and Butter are all sourced from vendors that do not use these synthetic growth hormones. We do not mandate that the milk and dairy ingredients in all other Private Label products be sourced from rBGH-free vendors.
