• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Chemistry - Food Chemistry, grade: 87.90, Kenyatta University, course: MSc in Foods, Nutrition and Dietetics, language: English, abstract: This is an advocacy letter on hormones in food. There is growing fear that presence of hormones in food can potentially cause harm in humans. Despite the continued reassurances from food manufacturers on the safety of the hormones in the food, consumers remain a worried lot. This has been occasioned by the food processing companies' reluctance to publish the foods that have hormones. With hormone containing foods unlabeled, associations between the introduction of hormonal ingredients into the food supply chain and human illness present a difficult task to be systematically tested and causation conclusively established. This letter is meant for various governmental departments that have the capability and funding to take action and petition on behalf of the consumer who may be powerless to twist the harm of food manufacturers to divulge the level of hormones in the food offered for sale.
