When you think about all of the things (hormones, etc.) that go into the animals these days, it's really hard to justify putting that toxic material in your body if you want to live healthy.
I definitely recommend going organic and naturally fed with no hormones when eating red meat. Actually all meat should be in this category.
I could get into a huge rant about why our government will allow such low standards for production that is killing our people...but I won't because we all have choices; right?
