Their is more evidence coming out that the hormone disrupting influence because of the high estrogen content is causing a lot of health problems which were not prevalent before the vast increase in cheese consumption.

If cheese is the cause of these hypothetical problems, then are other countries having similar rates of "complications"? I'm asking this because many European countries consume more cheese per person that the US does. This link (HERE) shows that a whopping 18 European countries in 2016 consumed more cheese per person than the US did. Even Israel consumed more cheese per person than the US did that year.
So are they also going through the same rate of complications? If not, that would imply that it's not cheese that's causing the complications.
ETA: And if you look close, that link doesn't even include all European countries. One country that's missing is the country that allegedly consumes the most cheese per person: Greece (HERE). If cheese is leading to so many health complications, then isn't it odd & contradicting that a country with one of the healthiest diets (the Mediterranean diet) also consumes the most cheese per person?

The growth hormone is a US thing, it is banned in the UK and EU.
Lots of US 'food' is banned in the UK and EU, even China and Russia bans some of your crap ridden food.
Land of the free eh.

I feel for you mate, genuinely.
I take no pleasure pointing out the crap which US citizens have to accept as 'authorised' by the government as food. When China bans foodstuffs from a nation you really have to question why.
I don't know if you saw this thread I made recently, but even McD's in the UK is less unhealthy than the US version.
It is saddening to me for my fellow humans across the pond, honestly saddening.
