Is grass fed beef really healthier, or is it just another food label we’ve romanticized? In this episode of Always Adaptive, I break down the science behind the grass-fed vs grain-fed debate, from omega-3s and micronutrients to the marketing claims you’ve probably heard repeated in every wellness podcast.
Spoiler: while grass-fed beef does have some benefits, it’s not the nutritional miracle it’s often made out to be. We’ll also look at how cooking affects those nutrients, why some grain fed beef might actually come out on top, and how your overall lifestyle matters way more than the type of steak you buy.
