A member asked:
What does it mean when you buy milk and on the bottle states that ' hormogenized'? does it mean it has hormones in it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Extra "R" : The term is homo-genized, not hormo-genized. The milk you buy in the store is composed of the milk of many different cows. It is made up of water and many different milk solids, etc. If allowed to sit, it would separate into layers, not an attractive site. Homogenization processes the milk solids into smaller things that stay in solution so the milk you drink is a uniform, attractive tasty drink.
