RJA #2b: Possible Topics
Health and Safety in today’s food industry?
I decided to do my research paper on the current health practices that are being used in the American food industry. This is a fascinating topic for me because I am really into nutrition and health. I also believe that many animals are being abused by farmers who inhibit these animals. By researching and writing a paper on this topic will only increase my knowledge about this subject ,but will also expose any facts or myths regarding the accusations being said about these food producers .
My knowledge on this subject is little to none. What I do know is that today animals are being pumped full of antibiotics, hormones, and various types of medications to produce what our food producers feel is ideal for the general public. However, I do not know if there are any repercussions due to these practices. Many farmers are using unethical practices when it comes to the treatment of these animals.
What I would like to learn about this topic is whether or not these antibiotics, hormones, and medications that is put in these animals have any long term effects. These effects include; the consumer who is purchasing them for consumption and the animals that are being filled full of these drugs. I would also like to find out if these practices ethical, not only for humans but for the animals as well. If so what is being done to keep the public safe, and who regulates how these animals are to be treated before slaughter? Do these practices allow more affordable foods to the public? Also our government sets the rules and guidelines for the food industry to abide by but are they being followed and is it enough?
