Grass Fed or Pastured Beef
According to a joint study between the USDA and researchers at Clemson University in South Carolina (Journal of Animal Science, June 2009), beeves raised on pasture are: 1) lower in total fat, 2) lower in saturated fats linked to heart disease, 3) higher in beta-carotene, 4) higher in vitamin E, 5) higher in calcium, magnesium and potassium, 6) higher in the B vitamins thiamin and riboflavin, 7) higher in total omega 3 fatty acids, 8) display a healthier ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 fatty acids, 9) higher in Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA), a potential cancer fighter, and 10) higher in vaccenic acid which can be converted to CLA. Science documents the health positive benefits of pastured beef.
