Since sterols are
animal growth factors and phytosterols and plant growth factors which we, as animals don't particularly respond to, I would think that the (animal) sterols would set us up for cancer simply by virtue of the fact that as growth factors, they would promote growth of tumors.

Some reports, such as the Open Philanthropy Project's
Animal Product Alternatives report and Van der Weele & Tramper (2014) suggest it is unlikely that cultured meats will become cost - competitive with conventional meat.98, 99 One important contributing
factor in this conclusion, which is cited in these reports, is the minimum costs of the
growth medium necessary for culturing the desired cells.
The reason for this seems to be insulin - like

growth hormone.
Findings of the research, published April 22 in the journal Mucosal Immunology, reveal that a substance found in

growth.
The study, performed in an
animal model, was the first to identify

animals depends on environmental
factors, such as the availability of food during development.

In the NGF - treated
animals (bottom) the
growth factor diffused from the injection site to the spinal cord and reached the adjacent sympathetic ganglia through the motor and sensory roots.
Such
growth could help explain why these
animals have persisted, the scientists suggest, because many of the
factors thought to be responsible for the decline of frog populations are particularly dangerous to water - based young.
Six ovarian
factors (BDNF, IGF - I, estradiol, GDNF, leptin and FGF2) were further studied based upon the expression of their receptors in oocytes and cumulus cells described above, as well as the availability of
growth factor concentration information from previous
animal model studies [1], [20], [21], [22], [23].
Unlike Monosiga, where RTKs could not be classified into metazoan families28, Amphimedon has kinase domains from six known
animal families (epidermal
growth factor receptor (EGFR), Met, discoidin domain receptor (DDR), regeneron orphan receptor (ROR), Eph and Sevenless).
Animal studies have shown that
growth factors are increased with aerobic activity so the brain gets more neurons as well as more connections between neurons.
Animal - based protein powders are highly processed, unnatural, and elevate levels of cancer - promoting hormones, methionine and insulin - like
growth factor - 1 (IGF - 1) in the body.
IGF1 levels does not necessarily means that you're gonna get cancer.IGF1 is a metabolic pathway for
growth, yes
growth in general from muscle tissue, bones, even organs BUT.There is a huge difference from ingecting into yourself, artificial IGF1 HGH etc and causing you body to secrete it naturall.When i say naturally i'm not talking about
animal products (i am a vegan btw except some use of honey and bee pollen)
animal product consumption is linked to a numerous deseases due to saturated fats, trans fats, high concentrations of sulfuring aminos even heme iron http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23983135.Blaming soy protein (which btw has some great health benefits, general the soy bean) is at least wrong.Ok consuming every day 1 kg of soy probably is not good, as NOTHING is at very high quantities.Nothing wrong with natto, tempeh, tofu, soymilk, soybean, ans SPI.Asian people have been consuming soy for thousands of years without negative effects.Soy and especially SPI for people who are doing serious natural bodybuilding without use of AAS and artificial
growth factors, and are also vegans believe me is a pain in the a $ $ and soy protein is maybe the ONLY type of protein that has sufficient ratios of amino acids, from bcaas to even sulfur aminos (but in normal levels not the dangerous levels linked to the homocysteine rise in the blood).
As well as the potential risk of high
animal protein intake on IGF - 1, mTOR, and other
factors that can promote cancer
growth, it's also worth noting that the countries with the highest health expenditure are probably the most technologically advanced.

Indeed, unlike
animal protein, plant protein has not been associated with increased insulinlike
growth factor 1 levels28, 29 and has been linked to lower blood pressure,30 - 32 reduced low - density lipoprotein levels,32 - 34 and improved insulin sensitivity.35 Substitution of plant protein for
animal protein has been related to a lower incidence of CVD36 - 39 and type 2 diabetes.40 - 42 Moreover, although a high intake of red meat, particularly processed red meat, has been associated with increased mortality in a recent meta - analysis of 13 cohort studies, 43 high consumption of nuts, a major contributor to plant protein, has been associated lower CVD and all - cause mortality.44 These results underscore the importance of protein sources for risk assessment and suggest that other components in protein - rich foods (eg, sodium, 45 nitrates, and nitrites46 in processed red meat), in addition to protein per se, may have a critical health effect.
