Growth hormones in poultry: why broilers gain weight faster without stimulants.
In stores, it is very common to encounter store-bought chicken, which often becomes the subject of controversial opinions. It is accused of containing hormones, antibiotics, and other harmful additives. However, it is worth noting that in the EU, the use of hormones in animal husbandry has been prohibited by law since 1989. Likewise, large companies, such as the agricultural holding MHP, claim that their birds are raised without the use of growth hormones and other harmful substances associated with animal growth.
In other words, if you buy chicken from well-known producers, the chances that it contains harmful impurities are very low. Therefore, it is important to choose products from reputable brands that adhere to high standards of quality and safety.
