Did you know that grass fed beef is significantly better for you than grain fed beef? Unless it specifically states grass fed, the beef you’re getting at the grocery store is corn fed. Neither the human body nor the cow’s body are designed to digest corn.
Feeding cattle on corn fundamentally changes the meat they produce, greatly increasing levels of unhealthy Omega-6 fatty acids and decreasing levels of healthy Omega-3 fatty acids.
Grass fed beef is higher in vitamins A, E, and other antioxidants; and also has significantly lower levels of saturated fat than grain fed beef.
While grass fed beef is much more expensive at the store, you can save greatly by purchasing from a local farmer.
If you’re in the St. Louis area, I highly recommend Daniel Morgan for ethically raised grass fed beef at a great price and free delivery. You can contact him at 660-676-8868 or This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
