Grassfed beef has 500% more of the essential fatty acid Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) than grain finished beef.  In animal studies, CLA has proven to be an anti-carcinogenic in that it not only reduces the likelihood of cancer, it actually suppresses the growth of cancer cells.

 

Grass Fed Beef is also celebrated for:

 

  • Increases immunity to disease
  • Prevents atherosclerosis (heart disease)
  • Increases bone density
  • Prevents obesity
  • Functions as an anti-diabetic

 

In fact, by simply switching to grass-fed beef, if you eat the typical amount of beef (66 pounds a year),  “it will save you 17,733 calories a year—without requiring any willpower or change in eating habits. If everything else in your diet remains constant, you’ll lose about six pounds a year. If all Americans switched to grassfed meat, our national epidemic of obesity would begin to diminish.”
