Does chicken contain stress hormones? What you need to know before you eat



You Are What You Eat: A Deeper Look at Chicken, Meat, and Energy Healing

Chicken has become a staple in the diets of many—especially for those focused on fitness and muscle building. It’s praised as one of the best sources of lean protein, and for that reason, many people include it in their meals daily.

But as we look closer, several important questions arise about the quality and energy of the food we consume. Especially in holistic healing, food is not just physical nourishment—it’s emotional and vibrational too. And chicken, as common as it is, brings with it a host of controversies worth exploring.



Are Hormones Still Used in Chicken?

One of the major concerns that circulates is the use of hormones in poultry. Many claim that hormone injections are banned—and that’s true in several countries. However, there are still reports suggesting that the feed chickens are given may contain hormone-like substances. This raises questions about what really ends up on our plates.

Another related concern is the widespread use of antibiotics in industrial poultry farming. Chickens are often given antibiotics even when they’re not sick, which can affect both their health and ours.



The Energy of Slaughter: Stress Hormones in Meat

Something less often talked about—but equally important—is the emotional state of animals before slaughter. Just like humans, animals respond to fear and pain by releasing stress hormones, such as cortisol and adrenaline. These hormones do break down fairly quickly, especially with cooking, but small traces can remain in the muscle tissues we consume.

I remember an incident where a goat was to be slaughtered as part of a ritual. The goat had been prepared and was quietly sitting in the corner of a room. When I looked at it, I could see the sadness in its eyes—its helplessness. It was as though it knew what was coming. That moment made me realize just how emotionally sensitive animals are. And in that moment of fear, their body reacts just like ours—with stress, with hormones, with energy.

So even if the amount of hormones left in meat is minute, we still don’t fully understand how that emotional energy affects our own body, mind, and spirit. Some people even report feelings of anxiety, fatigue, or stress after eating meat—possibly due to the subtle energies their food carries.

Why This Matters in Holistic Healing

In the world of holistic healing, food isn’t just about nutrition. It’s also about energy, intention, and emotion. What you eat can influence your mood, your thoughts, and your vibration. The energy of fear or suffering—even in trace amounts—may have a deeper impact than we realize.

If you're someone on a healing journey—especially one focused on gut health, hormonal balance, or emotional wellness—this is worth paying attention to.

What Can You Do?

You don’t have to give up meat entirely. But you can become more conscious of your choices:

Try humanely raised meat and eggs.Animals raised in low-stress environments often carry a gentler energy, and their products tend to offer better nutrition.

Explore plant-based protein sources.Lentils, beans, quinoa, nuts, seeds, tofu, and more can provide all the protein you need—with less energetic burden.

Eat with intention. Bless your food. Slow down. Choose foods that feel light, energizing, and in alignment with your body’s wisdom.



Because Food is Energy

Food is not just about taste or aroma.

It’s about the vibration it carries. The way it makes you feel—not just physically, but emotionally and energetically.

You are what you eat.

And what you eat should nourish your mind, body, and soul.


This is The Gentle Reset.

A space where healing begins—one mindful bite at a time.
