100% Grass-fed Beef
What are the benefits of 100% grass-fed beef?
100% grass fed beef comes from cows that were never fed any grain. They were raised as cattle were meant to be raised - on grass. Due to their pastured diet, 100% grass-fed beef provides more vitamins.
Here are some of the benefits of 100% grass-fed beef:
Lower calories
Higher in vitamins A and E
Higher in antioxidants
Higher CLA content
Contains electrolytes
Contains healthy fats
Contains less bacteria
Lower fat
When beef cattle are 100% grass-fed, their meat has much more vitamin E than grain-fed cattle. This is because grass and clover contain 20 times more vitamin E than corn or soy, the main ingredients in a feedlot diet. Grazing cattle consume as much as 1,000 IUs of vitamin E each day.
Vitamin E is one of the most important antioxidants because it protects against free radicals, boosts immunity, and may lower the risk of coronary heart disease.
Remember, we are what our animals eat.
