Are you wondering about ractopamine and its safety? This video is the first in a Hurd Health series about ractopamine. The second video talks about the safety of ractopamine and the third addresses why beef and pork farmers use ractopamine.
So what is ractopamine? Ractopamine is just a feed ingredient, kind of like a dietary supplement. It's produced from naturally occurring ingredients including raspberry ketones, which are very popular for fitness and weight loss in people these days. While all of these are safe, it is not a hormone, it's not a steroid, it's not an antibiotic or a genetically modified organism.
Why are people concerned? Until recently, most consumers had not even heard about ractopamine. Lately, it's been in the news because some of our trading partners have brought it to the headlines. A few have said they won't take our pork or beef because we use these supplements. The real reason they object is that a US product is better and gives their local product some stiff competition. When it comes to meat, "Made in the USA" is the highest quality and most economical, worldwide.
Ractopamine is related to other useful medications used in humans. Some of my children have struggled with asthma, but a quick pump of ractopamine's cousin albuterol will have them breathing and running again in just a few minutes. Obviously, these products that my children take have been tested by the health agencies such as the Food and Drug Administration and so has ractopamine in over 25 countries. It's been used in the US without incident since 1999.
Watch the rest of the video for a Q&A; session to answer common questions about ractopamine!

DESCRIPTION: BREAKING NEWS video: An analysis of yesterday's Consumer Reports finding that 1 in 5 samples of retail pork tested positive for the growth-promoting drug ractopamine. Tomorrow, I will cover their findings on Yersinia contamination. I had been collecting papers on ractopamine and Yersinia enterocolitica for my 2013 batch of videos, but no time like the present given yesterday's findings by Consumers Union that a significant proportion of the U.S. pork supply is contaminated with both! (See http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/pork0113.htm). For more on the drug use by the livestock industry, see yesterday's video Meat Mythcrushers (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/meat-mythcrushers/), as well as Drug Residues in Meat (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/drug-residues-in-meat/), U.S. Meat Supply Flying at Half Staph (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/u-s-meat-supply-flying-at-half-staph/), and MRSA in U.S. Retail Meat (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/mrsa-in-u-s-retail-meat/). Tomorrow I will cover their finding that the majority of retail pork samples harbored the foodborne bacteria Yersinia enterocolitica.

The American meat industry is a multi-billion dollar cash cow, but in Taiwan American meat imports are unwelcome. The country has placed a ban on meat originating from the US due to the presence of Ractopamine in the meat. The drug is an additive that helps stimulate leanness in livestock and now the Taiwanese government is considering lifting the ban. The motion has sparked massive protests and George Hemminger, founder of Survive and Thrive TV, joins us with his take on the matter.

Are you wondering about ractopamine and its safety? This video is the 3rd in a Hurd Health series about ractopamine. The first video answers the question "What is ractopamine?" and the second addresses the safety of ractopamine use.
Why do beef and pork farmers use ractopamine? Bottom line: more meat, less waste!
Ractopamine is a feed ingredient whose safety and efficacy has been tested and approved in over 25 countries. It has been safely used in North America without incident since 1999. Beef and pork farmers use it just in the last 30 days of growth because it helps cattle and pigs produce more lean meat with less fat and less waste. More meat, less waste - sounds great!
Using feed ingredients like ractopamine is green and sustainable. To me, green means we use all of the available resources to get your desired result. It means you don't waste stuff. Sustainable means you don't deplete natural resources to a degree that our grandchildren will go without. If someone offered you a 20% pay raise for the same amount of work, would you take it? If someone said you could get the 16 ounce protein shake for the same price as the 12 ounce, which would you choose?
Do you realize that if US beef producers did not use these tools like ractopamine it would take 81 million tons more grain? How much grain is 81 million tons? It's enough to fill over 1,000 Rose Bowl football stadiums. Right - more lean meat, less waste - sounds mighty green to me!
Farmers use it so that they can do a better job providing you with protein. You see, farmers have a difficult job. Those of you who are responsible for feeding the family know the challenge of getting the best, most nutritious food to your children on a budget. Imagine if you had a whole herd of 1,000 pound hungry cattle out there, wanting breakfast, lunch, and dinner, every day. It is a daily burden for the farmer. If you could find a safe, economical ingredient to help stretch that feed and get a little more meat and a little less fat, you'd be very happy. You see, ractopamine helps the animal make better use of the nutrients consumed so that it can make more lean protein on the feed provided.
Watch the rest of the video for a Q&A; session to answer common questions about how beef and pork farmers use ractopamine!

A while ago, cattle ranchers were pressured into no longer using the growth drug, Zilmax, as people were outraged that it caused cattle hooves to fall off. Now, instead of using Zilmax, ranchers use ractopamine, a drug that could be considered far worse. That's progress for you! The Resident discusses.

Chinese consumers are outraged at another tainted food scandal, this time involving the country's largest producer of pork. Farmers were found to be adding growth stimulants to pig feed, including clenbuterol, a substance illegally used by some athletes as a performance-enhancing drug.
Another tainted food scandal has rocked China. Major pork producers have been feeding pigs with growth stimulants considered harmful to humans.
Pig farms and slaughterhouses in Henan and Nanjing Provinces were adding clenbuterol and ractopamine to pig feed to produce leaner, pinker meat.
Clenbuterol is banned in many countries and has been illegally used by athletes as a performance-enhancing drug. It can cause quickened heartbeat and headaches, and in some cases major health complications.
Ractopamine is banned in China, Taiwan and other countries because it makes pigs more aggressive and its residue could affect humans, but it's used by U.S. pork producers.
The news broke when Chinese media reported on the use of the chemicals by a subsidiary of the country's largest meat processor, Henan Shuanghui Investment and Development Co Ltd, which has Goldman Sachs as one of its investors.
Chinese shopper like Mr. Zhang were very upset about this latest food scandal.
[Mr. Zhang, Chinese Shopper]:
"First, I'm very angry. It's not the first time that this additive has been used—it has happened before. Why does it keep happening? I'm definitely worried because it's extremely harmful to our health. Lastly, it will definitely affect whether people buy pork. This is very shocking."
Police detained 14 people in Henan and eight in Nanjing in relation to the food scandal, according to state media.

Ractopamine is a feed additive to promote leanness in animals raised for their meat. Pharmacologically, it is a beta-adrenergic agonist. It is the active ingredient in products known as Paylean for swine and Optaflexx for cattle, developed by Elanco Animal Health, a division of Eli Lilly and Company, for use in food animals for growth promotion.
Ractopamine use has been banned in most countries, including the European Union, mainland China and Russia while 27 other countries, such as Japan, the United States, Canada, and South Korea, have deemed meat from livestock fed ractopamine safe for human consumption.

DESCRIPTION: The phosphorus preservatives injected into poultry may not just be an arterial toxin. They also appear to dramatically increase the growth of food poisoning Campylobacter bacteria.
Why does the meat industry inject phosphate additives? See my last video, Phosphate Additives in Meat Purge and Cola (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/phosphate-additives-in-meat-purge-and-cola).
Other concerning additives used by the meat industry include asthma-type drugs (Ractopamine in Pork, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/ractopamine-in-pork/), bacteria-eating viruses (Viral Meat Spray, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/viral-meat-spray/), larvae (Maggot Meat Spray, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/maggot-meat-spray/), Arsenic in Chicken (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/arsenic-in-chicken/), nitrosamines (Prevention Is Better Than Cured Meat, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/prevention-is-better-than-cured-meat/), and antibiotics (Drug Residues in Meat, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/drug-residues-in-meat/).
What does Campylobacter do? See Poultry and Paralysis (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/poultry-and-paralysis/). How is it legal to sell meat contaminated with food poisoning bacteria? See Unsafe at Any Feed (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/unsafe-at-any-feed/) and Salmonella in Chicken & Turkey: Deadly But Not Illegal (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/salmonella-in-chicken-turkey-deadly-but-not-illegal/).
Since phosphate additives don't have to be listed on the nutrition label, how do you avoid them? I'm glad you asked—all in my next video, How to Avoid Phosphate Additives (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-to-avoid-phosphate-additives).

Ractopamine
Ractopamine is a feed additive to promote leanness in animals raised for their meat. Pharmacologically, it is a beta-adrenergic agonist. It is the active ingredient in products known as Paylean for swine and Optaflexx for cattle, developed by Elanco Animal Health, a division of Eli Lilly and Company, for use in food animals for growth promotion.
Ractopamine use has been banned in most countries, including the European Union, mainland China and Russia while 27 other countries, such as Japan, the United States, Canada, and South Korea, have deemed meat from livestock fed ractopamine safe for human consumption.
Commercial ractopamine is a mixture of all four possible stereoisomers.
Mode of action
When used as a food additive, ractopamine added to feed can be distributed via the blood to the muscle tissues, where it serves as a full agonist at mouse (not necessarily human) TAAR1. A cascade of events will then be initiated to increase protein synthesis, which results in increased muscle fiber size. Ractopamine is known to increase the rate of weight gain, improve feed efficiency, and increase carcass leanness in finishing swine. Its use in finishing swine yields about three kilograms of additional lean pork and improves feed efficiency by 10%.

This horrifying drug is probably in your bacon
A while ago, cattle ranchers were pressured into no longer using the growth drug, Zilmax, as people were outraged that it caused cattle hooves to fall off. Now, instead of using Zilmax, ranchers use ractopamine, a drug that could be considered far worse. That's progress for you! The Resident discusses.

Another tainted food scandal has rocked China. Major pork producers have been feeding pigs with growth stimulants considered harmful to humans. Pig farms and slaughterhouses in Henan and Nanjing Provinces were adding clenbuterol and ractopamine to pig feed to produce leaner, pinker meat.

Ractopamine
Ractopamine is a feed additive to promote leanness in animals raised for their meat. Pharmacologically, it is a beta-adrenergic agonist. It is the active ingredient in products known as Paylean for swine and Optaflexx for cattle, developed by Elanco Animal Health, a division of Eli Lilly and Company, for use in food animals for growth promotion. Ractopamine use has been banned in most countries, including the European Union, mainland China and Russia while 27 other countries, such as Japan, the United States, Canada, and South Korea, have deemed meat from livestock fed ractopamine safe for human consumption.

Are you wondering about ractopamine and its safety? This video is the first in a Hurd Health series about ractopamine. The second video talks about the safety of ractopamine and the third addresses why beef and pork farmers use ractopamine.
So what is ractopamine? Ractopamine is just a feed ingredient, kind of like a dietary supplement. It's produced from naturally occurring ingredients including raspberry ketones, which are very popular for fitness and weight loss in people these days. While all of these are safe, it is not a hormone, it's not a steroid, it's not an antibiotic or a genetically modified organism.
Why are people concerned? Until recently, most consumers had not even heard about ractopamine. Lately, it's been in the news because some of our trading partners have brought it to the headlines. A few have said they won't take our pork or beef because we use these supplements. The real reason they object is that a US product is better and gives their local product some stiff competition. When it comes to meat, "Made in the USA" is the highest quality and most economical, worldwide.
Ractopamine is related to other useful medications used in humans. Some of my children have struggled with asthma, but a quick pump of ractopamine's cousin albuterol will have them breathing and running again in just a few minutes. Obviously, these products that my children take have been tested by the health agencies such as the Food and Drug Administration and so has ractopamine in over 25 countries. It's been used in the US without incident since 1999.
Watch the rest of the video for a Q&A; session to answer common questions about ractopamine!

DESCRIPTION: BREAKING NEWS video: An analysis of yesterday's Consumer Reports finding that 1 in 5 samples of retail pork tested positive for the growth-promoting drug ractopamine. Tomorrow, I will cover their findings on Yersinia contamination. I had been collecting papers on ractopamine and Yersinia enterocolitica for my 2013 batch of videos, but no time like the present given yesterday's findings by Consumers Union that a significant proportion of the U.S. pork supply is contaminated with both!

The American meat industry is a multi-billion dollar cash cow, but in Taiwan American meat imports are unwelcome. The country has placed a ban on meat originating from the US due to the presence of Ractopamine in the meat. The drug is an additive that helps stimulate leanness in livestock and now the Taiwanese government is considering lifting the ban. The motion has sparked massive protests and George Hemminger, founder of Survive and Thrive TV, joins us with his take on the matter.

Are you wondering about ractopamine and its safety? This video is the 3rd in a Hurd Health series about ractopamine. The first video answers the question "What is ractopamine?" and the second addresses the safety of ractopamine use.
Why do beef and pork farmers use ractopamine? Bottom line: more meat, less waste!
Ractopamine is a feed ingredient whose safety and efficacy has been tested and approved in over 25 countries. It has been safely used in North America without incident since 1999. Beef and pork farmers use it just in the last 30 days of growth because it helps cattle and pigs produce more lean meat with less fat and less waste. More meat, less waste - sounds great!
Using feed ingredients like ractopamine is green and sustainable. To me, green means we use all of the available resources to get your desired result. It means you don't waste stuff. Sustainable means you don't deplete natural resources to a degree that our grandchildren will go without. If someone offered you a 20% pay raise for the same amount of work, would you take it? If someone said you could get the 16 ounce protein shake for the same price as the 12 ounce, which would you choose?
Do you realize that if US beef producers did not use these tools like ractopamine it would take 81 million tons more grain? How much grain is 81 million tons? It's enough to fill over 1,000 Rose Bowl football stadiums. Right - more lean meat, less waste - sounds mighty green to me!
Farmers use it so that they can do a better job providing you with protein. You see, farmers have a difficult job. Those of you who are responsible for feeding the family know the challenge of getting the best, most nutritious food to your children on a budget. Imagine if you had a whole herd of 1,000 pound hungry cattle out there, wanting breakfast, lunch, and dinner, every day. It is a daily burden for the farmer. If you could find a safe, economical ingredient to help stretch that feed and get a little more meat and a little less fat, you'd be very happy. You see, ractopamine helps the animal make better use of the nutrients consumed so that it can make more lean protein on the feed provided.
Watch the rest of the video for a Q&A; session to answer common questions about how beef and pork farmers use ractopamine!

Chinese consumers are outraged at another tainted food scandal, this time involving the country's largest producer of pork. Farmers were found to be adding growth stimulants to pig feed, including clenbuterol, a substance illegally used by some athletes as a performance-enhancing drug.
Another tainted food scandal has rocked China. Major pork producers have been feeding pigs with growth stimulants considered harmful to humans.
Pig farms and slaughterhouses in Henan and Nanjing Provinces were adding clenbuterol and ractopamine to pig feed to produce leaner, pinker meat.
Clenbuterol is banned in many countries and has been illegally used by athletes as a performance-enhancing drug. It can cause quickened heartbeat and headaches, and in some cases major health complications.
Ractopamine is banned in China, Taiwan and other countries because it makes pigs more aggressive and its residue could affect humans, but it's used by U.S. pork producers.
The news broke when Chinese media reported on the use of the chemicals by a subsidiary of the country's largest meat processor, Henan Shuanghui Investment and Development Co Ltd, which has Goldman Sachs as one of its investors.
Chinese shopper like Mr. Zhang were very upset about this latest food scandal.
[Mr. Zhang, Chinese Shopper]:
"First, I'm very angry. It's not the first time that this additive has been used—it has happened before. Why does it keep happening? I'm definitely worried because it's extremely harmful to our health. Lastly, it will definitely affect whether people buy pork. This is very shocking."
Police detained 14 people in Henan and eight in Nanjing in relation to the food scandal, according to state media.

(All proceeds Dr. Greger receives from the sales of his books, DVDs, and speaking engagements go to support the 501c3 nonprofit that runs NutritionFacts.org.)
DESCRIPTION: The phosphorus preservatives injected into poultry may not just be an arterial toxin. They also appear to dramatically increase the growth of food poisoning Campylobacter bacteria.
Why does the meat industry inject phosphate additives? See my last video, Phosphate Additives in Meat Purge and Cola (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/phosphate-additives-in-meat-purge-and-cola).
Other concerning additives used by the meat industry include asthma-type drugs (Ractopamine in Pork, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/ractopamine-in-pork/), bacteria-eating viruses (Viral Meat Spray, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/viral-meat-spray/), larvae (Maggot Meat Spray, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/maggot-meat-spray/), Arsenic in Chicken (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/arsenic-in-chicken/), nitrosamines (Prevention Is Better Than Cured Meat, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/prevention-is-better-than-cured-meat/), and antibiotics (Drug Residues in Meat, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/drug-residues-in-meat/).
What does Campylobacter do? See Poultry and Paralysis (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/poultry-and-paralysis/). How is it legal to sell meat contaminated with food poisoning bacteria? See Unsafe at Any Feed (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/unsafe-at-any-feed/) and Salmonella in Chicken & Turkey: Deadly But Not Illegal (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/salmonella-in-chicken-turkey-deadly-but-not-illegal/).
Since phosphate additives don't have to be listed on the nutrition label, how do you avoid them? I'm glad you asked—all in my next video, How to Avoid Phosphate Additives (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-to-avoid-phosphate-additives).

Have a question for Dr. Greger about this video? Leave it in the comment section at http://nutritionfacts.org/video/phosphate-additives-in-chicken/ and he'll try to answer it!

Management Techniques to Reduce Nitrogen Losses from Feedlot Cattle
Proceedings available at: http://www.extension.org/67720 The effects of ractopamine hydrochloride (RAC) and a steroidal implant (IMP), on whole body N metabolism were evaluated in 24 Hereford x Angus steers (BW 554.4 ± 26.8 kg). The experimental design was a completely randomized block design with a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. Factors included: 1) RAC (0.0 or 400 mg×steer-1×d-1) and 2) IMP (0.0 or 200 mg trenbolone acetate and 28 mg of estradiol benzoate). Steers were housed in individual pens and allowed ad libitum access to feed and water throughout the experiment. Once cattle had been implanted for 48 d and had received RAC for 21 d, a nutrient balance study was conducted for 6 d.

Proceedings available at: http://www.extension.org/67720
The effects of ractopamine hydrochloride (RAC) and a steroidal implant (IMP), on whole body N metabolism were evaluated in 24 Hereford x Angus steers (BW 554.4 ± 26.8 kg). The experimental design was a completely randomized block design with a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. Factors included: 1) RAC (0.0 or 400 mg×steer-1×d-1) and 2) IMP (0.0 or 200 mg trenbolone acetate and 28 mg of estradiol benzoate). Steers were housed in individual pens and allowed ad libitum access to feed and water throughout the experiment. Once cattle had been implanted for 48 d and had received RAC for 21 d, a nutrient balance study was conducted for 6 d.
