  1. Why Grass Fed Beef Should Be Your Diet of Choice It is no secret that Americans eat a lot of beef. The average person consumes nearly 100 pounds of beef per year! But with so many different cuts and grades for sale in stores, it can be hard to know which one is best for you. Grass-fed beef is a great choice because it has been shown to have higher levels of Omega 3s and lower levels of saturated fats than conventionally raised cattle. It also contains more conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) which may help reduce the risk of stroke, cancer, diabetes, and obesity as well as increase your feeling of satiety after eating less food overall. The only downside? Grass-fed cows take longer to grow to mean they produce fewer pounds on average but this also means that the meat is more expensive. So if you’re on a budget, it may be best to stick with conventional beef which has been found to have levels of Omega-three fatty acids similar to grass-fed beef and less total fat than grain fed beef.
