027: You CAN MAKE a DIFFERENCE in Your HEALTH, the Environment and the WORLD; NOT just because it's getting trendy, but GRASS-FED, GRASS-FINISHED is better for YOU, for THEM AND the ENVIRONMENT!!!! And it TASTES BETTER!
In this Episode, Dr. Thomas Hemingway will explain the difference between grass-fed and grass-finished and organic meat and dive into the rationale for choosing the healthiest option for you, them AND the Environment.
He will start with the history and then focus on our present day dilemma of whether to support the grass-fed and grass-finished process and how it can not only improve our Health, but the animal's health and well being and their humane treatment and decrease our carbon footprint and actually decrease greenhouse gases as the carbon gets sequestered into the soil.
So, pay attention to the labels and make sure to get ONLY Grass-fed and Grass-finished meat, preferably from your local farms that you know and trust so you can not only improve your health, but that of the animals, the soil and the WORLD. The benefits are endless and YOU can make a difference as you VOTE with your WALLET and buy only grass-fed and grass-finished products. And, as an added benefit, besides all the health and environmental benefits mentioned in the podcast; it simply TASTES BETTER!!!
