Our Grass Fed beef has been fed an all roughage diet and has not been fed grains, animal byproducts, or concentrates. Our beef is all natural, meaning it has not been given antibiotics or growth hormones. This is a more natural diet for our cattle that produces the following benefits:
OMEGA 3s:
Omega 3s are fatty acids, important for heart health and brain function.
Grass fed beef contains higher levels of omega 3s than beef finished on grains.
CLA (CONJUGATED LINOLEIC ACID):
CLA is a fatty acid that improves metabolism, reduces body fat, especially and increases muscle strength. CLA supports and improves immune system health, increases resistance to certain cancers, reduces cardiovascular disease and helps with osteoporosis and allergies. Grass finished beef is a better source of CLA than grain fed Beef.
STEARIC ACID:
Saturated fat is typically known to raise cholesterol levels. About 1/3 of the saturated fat found in grass-finished beef is stearic acid; a special kind of saturated fat. Stearic acid is found to be associated with lower LDL cholesterol levels.
In addition, grass-fed beef contains more vitamins, antioxidants, and other nutrients and is less likely to contain ‘super-bugs’ or harmful bacteria.
