March 27,2009 Dr. Mercola posted “The Dangers of Too Much Red Meat”
According to Dr. Mercola, the unhealthy components of common beef are:
-
More omega-6 fat content
- Hormones
- Antibiotics
- Vaccines and other drugs
- Irradiation
Dr. Mercola stated “ studies show that grass-fed cattle have an omega-6-omega-3 ratio of 3:1, while grain-fed cattle can have ratios that may exceed 20:1.”
Make no beef about it ! Grass fed is healthier than traditonally raised beef. FYI – numerous senior citizens have told me that beef just doesn’t taste like it used to. HMMMM….. wonder why?
