Do I have any mistakes in this short paragraph?

Even after washing, many fruits and vegetables still contain

small traces of chemical sprays. Doctor Lily Jung said that fertilized fruits and vegetables were the cause many illnesses to both adults and children in the past 10 years.



Over 36 million cattle are used as beef each year. However, nearly two thirds of those

cattle are fattened up with hormones. Some of these hormones are similar to those taken

by today's athletes. Other cattle are given estrogen or progestin that shut down a female's

menstrual cycle.

People use hormones to stimulate the growth in cattle and help them produce more

meat and fat. According to a survey by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, about

99% of the nation's largest cattle factories use hormonal implants. And substantial

portions of these hormones pass through the cattle and into their feces and end up in

the environment, where it can get into other foods and drinking water.



Are there any type of mistake here?
