For ex president of USA has advised humanity on this planet to curb the effects of global warming by going Vego as per this article.

I recently read an online article also that meat producers use Ractopamine.  The article stated that Ractopamine was approved in 1999 for use on finishing swine, pigs that are being fed and readied for market. The article further suggests that the drug directs nutrients away from the production of fat deposition and promotes an increase of lean meat, resulting in more weight gain, increased carcass leanness, and fatter bottom lines for pork producers. We have been advised to eat leaner meat but now we know they are the by product of the drug called Ractopamine, trades under the name of Paylean.

It is revealed that Ractopamine is cardiac stimulator and possible carcinoge, cancer causing agent. Other shocking truths about this drug are as follows:

1. Paylean labels stated that it is not for human use as they pose significant hazards to human. The handlers need to protect themselves with protective clothing, eyeware, gloves and wash up thoroughly after use. Now, we are eating its by product in the form of leaner meat.
2. It is banned in 160 countried including China, Taiwan and EU.
3. Only small niche of slaughtering house would process the meat.
4. Paylean makes pigs extremely agitated and miserable.

So, isn't the time that we all turn Vegan/Vegetarian ? For your health, the animals and for our beautiful planet. More information could be obtained here.
