To bring this back to earth, I don't know of any research that indicates
obesity or leanness haven't been controlled in the studies that have drawn
correlations between eating hormone-laden beef and the early appearance of
secondary sexual characteristics. That's precisely the kind of thing that
would be controlled for in a study.

If you want to see the state of the research, there are a number of articles
on PubMed. There are other problems with hormones in beef, besides the
precocious sexual development.





I would think a good place to do research is in a closed community like
the Amish that live off their own beef they raise.
