Thinking of switching to grass-fed beef? Wondering if it’s worth it? There are many benefits to switching to local, farm-raised, grass-fed beef, and we think you’ll love it.
Here are a few reasons why.
You can eat well, knowing you’re not causing unnecessary suffering.
Slaughter can be done quickly and painlessly after a cow, chicken, or other animal has lived a happy life. It’s not necessary to torture animals in order to eat well.
However, factory farming prioritizes profits and efficiency over animal welfare. They pack animals into crates so small they can’t turn around, stack chickens atop each other, force the ones at the bottom to live in the filth that comes in the top, and use a host of other cruel practices.
Humane farming practices stress the animals less, are kinder, and are even healthier for you, the consumer, because factory-farmed animals are pumped full of antibiotics that aren’t necessarily good for you.
Grass-fed, farm-raised beef is more nutritious.
Grass-fed beef contains plenty of sodium, potassium, and magnesium, minerals that are deficient in many modern human bodies. Grass-fed meat also contains healthy fats, providing up to six times more omega-3s than grain-fed beef.
You can also enjoy meat with fewer unhealthy fats, less LDL cholesterol, and plenty of additional nutrients.
Grass-fed beef is safer.
If you’re worried about dangerous bacteria in your food, then grass-fed beef is the way to go.
Factory-farm, grain-fed beef is more likely to contain antibiotic-resistant bacteria, which means you’re less likely to suffer from food poisoning.
You might see a smaller number on your scale.
Are you watching your weight but struggling to diet? With grass-fed beef, you can reduce the number of calories you eat while eating the same foods in the same quantities. Switching to grass-fed beef can cut over 300 calories from your weekly diet, and those calorie savings add up.
The nutrient profile of grass-fed beef means it also does a better job of sustaining healthy blood sugar levels, which means you feel fuller for longer.
