Grass-fed beef: What are the heart-health benefits?
Does grass-fed beef have any heart-health benefits that other types of beef don’t?
Answer
from Martha Grogan, M.D.
Grass-fed beef typically comes from cattle that eat only grass and other foraged foods throughout their lives. Often, conventional beef and dairy cattle eat a diet that includes grains, such as corn, at some point. The difference in the diets of the cattle changes the nutrients and fats you get from eating the different types of beef.
