Can we tell you a secret? Well, maybe it’s not really a secret. Some fat is good for you! Specifically, omega-3 fatty acids lead to better health: Lower risk of cardiovascular, heart, and liver disease, improved brain function, and they work as an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. That’s some powerful stuff!
One of the greatest natural sources of omega-3 are grasses and clover. THAT is why we do grass fed here at the Flying B Bar Ranch. Our cows eat a diet that directly impacts the nutrition of our beef. A recent analysis (link) showed that grass fed beef has 3 TIMES more omega-3s than grain fed beef.
Moooove over grain fed

“Consumers have been led to believe that meat is meat is meat. In other words, no matter what an animal is fed, the nutritional value of its products remains the same. This is not true. An animal’s diet can have a profound influence on the nutrient content of its products. ”
