Red meat is an important source of numerous nutrients and vitamins and is a good part of a healthy, balanced lifestyle. Should we be concerned about what kind of beef we buy, however?
Here’s another way to look at it. If we are what we eat, does it matter what our food ate? It absolutely does.
Let’s learn about 2 factors that make grass-fed beef a smarter dinner pick:
1. No toxins or GMO’s.
Organic and grass-fed meat choices mean you know exactly what you are eating and where it came from. Cows eat fresh grass and wander in open fields, as opposed to spending their adult life in feedlots and being given hormones and antibiotics to survive unsanitary living conditions. Support your local farmer and by purchase straight from the source!
2. Higher nutrient levels and less fat.
Beef raised on grass has much higher levels of Omega 3’s, the essential fatty acid vital to brain and heart health, and also higher levels of Conjugated Linoleic Acid.
Grass-fed beef is a smart, healthy, kind choice for your diet!
