If hormones in food can cause early puberty then wouldn't they also affect aging? If so, how?

I've heard that hormones in food production are suspected of causing early puberty and other hormonal issues in people.  I've never seen anything about these same hormones and how they may affect aging.  If the hormones can cause early puberty, for example, how would those same effects translate to an older person?  Could they delay normal aging  or otherwise affect that process?

Hormones are only suspected of causing early puberty by non-scientists. Growth hormones require receptors in order to be taken into cells, otherwise they are broken down by the digestive system like any other peptide. rBGH cows are treated with Bovine Growth Hormone not Human Growth Hormone. Humans lack receptors for it. 

Like Idzman218 said early puberty is directly linked to body fat percentage not hormones in food production. Although with everything in the body, not all systems and biochemical pathways are marked out so you never want to be absolute.
