Your National News December 2013 Day 11
"How about no more antibiotics?"
The U.S. FDA stated in a report that it will begin phasing out using some of the most critical antibiotics being used in farm raised animals. The research has determined that the use of the most critical antibiotics in animals fed or injected for diseases has caused more immunity in both farm animals and human who consume meats. This new phase will concentrate on withholding the inducing with farm animals raised for meats. The FDA is seeking to make the phase mandatory because of the resistance being passed along to human consumption. Most farmers give their animals antibiotics to fight off disease and to elevate production of large growth of animals. However, the FDA is suggesting that although some antibiotics will still be continued the most potent ones will be considered as part of its phase out to protect public health. They hope all potent antibiotics will be phased out and used with guidelines complacent by meat producers the year 2016.
Might be watching for more of this development in the future. O-O` "Where's the antibiotic beef?" hmm..
