HEALTH BENEFITS
Grass-fed Beef: Does it really need to be grass-fed? YES. Grass-fed beef contains significantly more omega-3 fatty acids than grain-fed beef. The optimal ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 fatty acids should be 2:1. The Western Diet has excessive amounts of omega 6 fatty acids (resulting in a much higher 6 / 3 ratio) which can promote the onset of certain diseases like cancer, inflammation, and autoimmune diseases. Increased levels of Omega 3 fatty acids can show suppressive effects. The goal is to increase your omega 3’s by getting as close to the optimal 2:1 ratio. Your brain will thank you. PLUS, it contains more conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a type of fat that’s thought to reduce heart disease and cancer risk.
Homemade Taco Seasoning vs. Store Bought Packets: Store bought packets contain preservatives and in most cases they contain gluten. Making your own taco seasoning is simple and clean.
