àPopular "U.S. Policy Turns Blind Side to Dangers of Meat Additives." Cancer Prevention Coalition. Austin American-Statesman. Web. 17 Apr. 2012. <http://preventcancer.com/press/editorials/march10_92.htm>. This article from 1989 is about the addition of growth hormones to meat and the inherent dangers. It also focuses on the effects of DES even generations after it was actually consumed. There are children and grandchildren with serious health issues that can be linked back to DES. The source seems pretty reliable; it is a popular source so that means it may not be 100% reliable. It is mostly reciting historical events so I don’t think it is very biased. The information the source offers basically serves as a timeline to what happened with DES over the years so that is extremely helpful. àScholarly "EUROPEAN COMMISSION FINDS GROWTH HORMONES IN MEAT POSE RISK." EBSCO Host.

The source is from a doctorate at a university so it is probably pretty reliable although it may be a little dated. It is about consumer health concerns regarding growth hormones in meat.
