The main reason to eat meat of any kind is the top quality Heme-Iron that isn’t present in plants (Non-Heme Iron).<\/p>\n

Beef also contains a big dose of stress-reducing B vitamins as well as Zinc. Anytime we eat foods high in Zinc, our bodies produce Super Oxide Dimutase, or SOD. This is a supercharged anti-aging antioxidant! And, your body does all the work for you.<\/p>\n

Beef is difficult to digest, making a 4-6 oz portion perfect. Small amounts on a consistent basis, bring many health benefits and doesn’t tax our digestive tract. Cook with the fat on the meat, for flavor and tenderness, then trim it off and leave it on your plate.<\/p>\n

This salad kicks up our Kidney function, too. This aide in the elimination of Ammonia in our bloodstream. A wide variety of foods everyday is surely the way to Radiant Health!<\/p>\n
