Grass fed meat

Help eating to do what? Lose weight? Your body doesn't care if the meat is grass fed or corn fed. Calories in have to be less than the calories out.

I prefer grassfed and pasture raised meat. I has a much healthier nutrition profile than CAFO meat. And the animals and earth are usually treated much better than in CAFO situations. It is best to know your farmer and his/her practices. But I don't stick to only grassfed meat and veg. I eat a variety of other foods, too.

You didn't explain what you mean by "wise" eating. Are you trying to gain weight? Lose weight? Lower or raise cholesterol? Raise or lower blood sugar levels? Make your skin look pretty? What goals are you trying to accomplish through your nutrition plan?

To me, grass fed beef tastes better. If I am going to consume beef, I want good tasting beef. I usually buy a 12 oz. steak and eat half of it per meal. I use the rest for a burrito or to add to other food.

Essentially, "All cows do graze on pasture for the first six months to a year of their lives, but most finish at a feedlot on a concentrated mix of corn, soy, grains, and other supplements, plus hormones and antibiotics...A feedlot cow can grow to slaughter weight up to a year faster than a cow fed only forage, grass, and hay...The feedlot process not only speeds the animal to slaughter weight but also enhances fat marbling...

"Boosting fat levels changes the nutritional composition of the meat, of course, and, from a health point of view, not for the better. A study by researchers at California State University in Chico examined three decades of research and found that beef from pasture-raised cows fits more closely into goals for a diet lower in saturated fat and higher in "good fats" and other beneficial nutrients. Grass-fed beef is lower in calories, contains more healthy omega-3 fats, more vitamins A and E, higher levels of antioxidants, and up to seven times the beta-carotene.

So there you have it, better nutritional composition in grass fed beef.

I only eat grass fed beef ( and not very often either) & I won't touch grain fed beef or farm raised salmon.

Grass fed beef has a different lipid profile than grain fed.... It's omega 3 versus omega 6.

I buy grass fed meat, and wild caught seafood. I like the taste more, plus the ethics in regards to how the animals are treated matter to me. As for produce, there are some that I prefer to buy local and/or in season (especially berries), but I am not so rigid on that.

It doesn't have to be expensive, especially if you eat a wide variety of foods. Buy local, discounted meat sections, shop around for good deals, etc.

It is good, but maybe look for a local butcher shop where the cows are close by so the cost is much the same as you get at a grocery store but the cows are happy and the meat is the best around.

I eat grassfed, grass finished meat and vegetables most of the time because it's what I like to eat, it supports the type ethical farming that is important to me and and eating that way is sustainable long term for me.

Are those things you enjoy eating? Could you see yourself eating only that? What are your goals? I'm assuming weight loss correct?

If your goal is just to lose weight and maintain that loss you do need to follow any special diet. Find foods you like to eat, find foods that you find both filling and satisfying from a taste perspective and eat those in amounts that create a calorie deficit. Don't make it more more challenging on yourself than it has to be.

Grass fed beef tends to be leaner, but it isn't magic. I find it yummy and will pay more for it. Just my $.02

@janejellyroll they are owned by the same family here. I know this is not the same everywhere.
