In today’s health-conscious world, many people are seeking natural ways to reduce inflammation. After all, medical science has shown us that inflammation is the culprit lurking between many chronic conditions.
Fortunately, grass-fed beef can be a powerful ally in your fight to take control of your health.
Understanding Inflammation
What is inflammation?
Inflammation isn’t inherently bad. It’s part of your body’s natural defense against injury or infection. It’s an immune system response, so the goal isn’t to eliminate it entirely.
However, sometimes inflammation becomes chronic or persistent. When that happens, it can begin triggering various diseases or painful syndromes. Examples include diabetes, arthritis, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue syndrome.
Chronic inflammation has many causes such as processed foods, sugar, unhealthy fats, stress, environmental toxins, and lack of exercise. Grass-fed beef won’t fix everything—you should still look into reducing sugar, for example—but it can help.
The Grass-Fed Difference
The difference between a grass-fed diet and a grain-fed diet significantly alters the fatty acid composition of the meat. It has a higher concentration of Omega-3s, which can help reduce chronic inflammation.
It also has a higher concentration of Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) which is also associated with anti-inflammatory benefits. Studies show it can reduce the oxidative stress in the body as well.
It contains several more key anti-inflammatory nutrients like B-vitamins, iron, and zinc.
Finally, grass-fed beef is leaner. This means it can help with healthy weight reduction too, which in turn helps reduce inflammation. You can eat the exact same portion of grass-fed beef while consuming fewer calories and less fat. That’s called a win-win, especially for a steak-loving Texan!
