Episode 3227: Kris Gunnars breaks down the nutritional and ethical differences between grass-fed and grain-fed beef, revealing how a cow's diet impacts everything from fat content to antioxidant levels. While grass-fed beef offers some added health perks like more omega-3s and CLA, the overall benefits may not justify the higher cost for everyone. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/grass-fed-vs-grain-fed-beef Quotes to ponder: "You are what you eat applies to cows too." "Though grass-fed beef contains higher amounts of certain nutrients, there is currently no compelling evidence that it’s significantly healthier than grain-fed beef." "At the end of the day, the choice depends on your preferences and values."
