| then you already know the taste blows any | | | | The weight loss power of grass fed beef isn't only |
| conventional burger out of the water. A bar where I | | | | because you are consuming fewer calories. There is |
| live in Oregon recently was voted #1 for having the | | | | also a large difference in the ratios of good and bad |
| best burger and coincidentally the bar gets their beef | | | | fats. As you probably guessed grass-fed beef has |
| from a local grass fed company. The other day I had | | | | much more "good" fats which are lacking in most |
| a barbecue and made a bunch of grass fed burgers | | | | American's diet. The "bad" fat content is remarkably |
| and didn't tell anyone that the meat was any | | | | lower in grass fed which is a major cause of health |
| different. Every guest that had a burger approached | | | | problems. These "bad" fats are already riddled |
| me complimenting me on how tasty the burger was | | | | throughout the conventional diet lacking the proper |
| and asking me what I did to make the burger so | | | | balance required for optimal health. Eating meat from |

| They thought I had used a special method or | | | | CLA's resulting in a more balanced body. Not only are |

| After more research I learned that free range beef | | | | on where you live it might be difficult for you to get |
| was not only tastier than regular beef but also | | | | so the price will vary. Luckily I live in Oregon where |
| healthier. A 9 oz. steak from a grass fed cow | | | | there are a couple local farms and I can get get |
| contains approximately 100 fewer calories than a 9oz. | | | | ground beef chuck for 2.99 per/lb and ground sirloin |
| steak from a grain fed cow which can add up | | | | for 3.69 per/lb which is a great deal. I usually do a 50 |
| considering the typical American consumes about 65 | | | | 50 mix of the chuck and ground sirloin for the the |
| lbs per year. Switching to from regular beef to free | | | | ultimate burger. If you can incorporate grass-fed |
| range alone without exercise could translate into a | | | | beef into your diet than I highly recommend it or just |
| loss of about 6 pounds over a year. You would | | | | give it a try some time if you get a chance you |
| consume approximately 11,500 less calories | | | | won't regret it. |
