Phase 6 of WHAT'S IN THE MEAT WE EAT?
VEGETARIAN FED
May poultry products sport this label, which means the feed given to the flock contains no animal byproducts often added to fee as a protein source. In these cases, the feed contains only vegetable protein such as soy.
Chickens are omnivores, not ruminants, so in a natural setting they would eat bugs & grubs & whatever the can scratch up. This means that a label that says "vegetable grain-fed chicken" does not reflect a bird's natural diet.
NATURAL
According to the USDA, "a product labeled "NATURAL" is a product containing no artificial ingredient or added color & is only minimally processed." In addition, "the label must include a statement explaining the meaning of the term natural (such as "no artificial ingredients: minimally processed)"
ANTIBIOTICS
* "RAISED WITHOUT ANTIBIOTICS" labels on meat & poultry products according to the USDA, say the animal must not be administered antibiotics, whether in their feed, water, or via injection.
* Other terms that are used interchangeably include: no antibiotics administered, no antibiotics, no antibiotics ever, & raised antibiotic free.
I will try to finish this up Tuesday when I come back to the shop. Have a wonderful afternoon & a great weekend.

Phase 5 of WHAT'S IN THE MEAT WE EAT?
FREE RANGE
* "FREE RANGE" or "pasture-fed" are commonly used to describe chicken & turkey that have been given access to regularly roam & graze outdoors.
* "CAGE FREE" or "free roaming" simply means chickens were not confined to cages, but it doesn't mean they have access to the outdoors - many times this means a room or open area inside a barn or poultry house. However to be approved by the USDA's Agricultual Marketing Services (AMS), the hens must have unlimited access to food & water & can roam freely during the laying cycle.
In the United States, the AMS oversees the use of these terms including organic. Eggs certified by the USDA's National Organic Program come from chickens that are fed an organic-feed diet (without conventional pesticides or fertilizers) & are uncaged with access to the outdoors.
PASTURE RAISED
This term should mean that animals roam in a natural environment where they can eat forage. It is often used in the same way as "free range."
"PASTURE-RAISED" EGGS = BETTER NUTRITION
Research has shown that eggs from pasture-raised (or fee-range) chickens have a nutritional advantage, including greater levels of omega-3 fats, vitamin E, & vitamin A.
I will try to continue with this tomorrow. Have a great afternoon.

Phase 4 of WHAT'S IN THE MEAT WE EAT?
REGENERATING GREENER PASTURES
Regenerative agriculture is a newly codified approach to agriculture that not only emphasizes reducing reliance on chemical inputs, as does organic agriculture, but goes one step further by taking the necessary steps to rebuild the soil biome (a living, biologically active soil), resulting in a carbon drawdown & less polluted water systems, including rivers.
It's a holistic approach to plant & livestock production that does a much better job @ promoting & enhancing biodiversity, protecting long-term soil health, & respecting ecological balance through the use of environmental, ecological, & ethical practices.
Livestock raised using a regenerative farming approach can have a positive impact on the environment. A study in the journal Agriculture Systems showed that cattle raised using a method known as multi-paddock grazing, where the grass-fed animals are moved often to allow plants to recover & avoid the pitfalls of overgrazing, resulted in greenhouse gas emissions incurred through the raising of the cattle being mostly offset by the amount of carbon sequestered in the healthier soil.
Like organic farming a couple of decades ago, regenerative agriculture is still in its infancy. But there are a growing number of farmers raising their livestock & vegetables in this fashion, so it will become increasingly possible to purchase this next - level meat for a more climate - friendly burger.
I will try to continue with this tomorrow. Have a wonderful afternoon.

Phase 3 of WHAT'S IN THE MEAT WE EAT?
LESS IS BEST
Understanding meat labels & the different livestock raising practices that farmers can use is an important step toward sourcing healthier, more sustainable options. But even if you are sourcing the most ethical, sustainable, & nutritious meat for your dinner table, be it 100% grass fed or from regenerative agriculture operations, it's still important that most Americans make it a goal to eat less meat & more plants.
It's not just the planet that can benefit from swapping beef for beans mor often, it's also human health. Recent scientific evidence suggests adhering to healthy plant-based dietary patterns can not only reduce the risk for heart disease, but also reduce people's genetic susceptibility to cardiovascular disease.
Foods from the plant kingdom contain a nutritional makeup including high levels of fiber & phytonutrients that aren't available from a meat - heavy diet. And when you trim some of the meat from your diet in favor of lower - cost plant-based alternatives, such as legumes, it may leave you with more in your budget to spread on animal - based proteins that demand a premium, such as grass-fed beef, free-range chickens, & wild salmon - choices that can help lower the carbon cost of your diet.
The bottom line for the well-being of our fragile planet & for our bodies? It's never been more important to source sustainably & humanely produced meat &, @ the same time, wedge more plants into your daily menu. Meatless Mondays & grass-fed Tuesdays, anyone?

Phase 2 of WHAT'S IN THE MEAT WE EAT?
GRASS FED VERSUS GRASS FINISHED
* "GRASS FED" commonly refers to livestock raised on pasture & not confined to a feed lot.
* "GRASS FINISHED" means animals spend their final weight-gain stage on grass (& may or may not have eaten grains during their lifetimes).
* "100% GRASS FED" would be your best assurance the animal had only consumed grass.
On the website, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) defines grass fed as meaning, "grass & forage shall be the feed source consumed for the lifetime of the ruminant animal, with the exception of milk consumed prior to weaning." In addition, "animals cannot be fed grain or grain byproducts & must have continuous access to pasture during the growing season."
However, unless the producers' processes are verified by the USDA or another recognized grass-fed standard, using this definition on marketing labels could mean anything.
GRASS FED = BETTER NUTRITION
Research suggests that grass-fed beef produces meat with a better nutrition profile, including increased levels of omega-3 fats & lower levels of cholesterol-raising saturated fats.
I will try to continue with this tomorrow. Have a wonderful afternoon & evening.

WHAT'S IN THE MEAT WE EAT?
Eat with a clearer conscience. By Matthew Kadey, MSc, RD & Delicious Living Magazine
In today's urban lifestyle, consumers are often disconnected from their food's origins, including where it comes from, or in the case of meat, how it was raised. If you have a fondness for beef burgers, chicken breast, & scrambled eggs, knowing their terroir is key.
"Unfortunately, marketers can confuse the message with meaningless claims, making product packaging & labeling downright confusing."
The negative impact of unsustainable animal agriculture on our ecosystem - & our collective health - is impossible to ignore. But we can mitigate the impact by using some savvy consumer power. We can start by understanding the nuances of product labels.
Unfortunately, marketers can confuse the message with meaningless claims, making product packaging & labeling downright confusing. Here's what some of the most common label lingo means, so you can spend your dollars wisely.
ORGANIC
When meat is USDA certified as "ORGANIC", it means that animals must be fed 100% organic feed & forage. In addition, the USDA regulations require that animals be raised in natural living conditions (e.g., grazing on pastures), & without antibiotics & hormones.

Phase 6 of STAY ON TOP OF YOUR HEALTH
RISK FACTORS FOR TYPE 2 DIABETES
Most people with diabetes (roughly 90%) have type 2 diabetes. Some of the risk factors for developing type 2 include:
* Being 40 or older
* Have a close relative with type 2 diabetes
* Be in a high-risk group (like African, Asian, Indigenous, South Asian)
* High BMI or weight circumference
* High blood pressure, LDL, or triglyceride levels
* Smoking
Prostate cancer is the second-most frequent cancer among men. The good news? Statistics Canada reports that the 5-year net survival rate for prostate cancer is 93%.
TOO TIRED TO CONSIDER ADRENAL FATIGUE?
Often dismissed by traditional endocrinologists, adrenal fatigue is the concept that chronic stress affects our adrenal glands causing overuse &, eventually, potential failure.
Our adrenal glands, which sit atop the kidneys, are responsible for releasing cortisol into the bloodstream when we're under stress. However, adrenal fatigue theorizes that these glands can enter an exhausted state, resulting in lowered cortisol levels & symptoms such as brain fog, low energy, junk food cravings, & depressive mood.
If you, like many, are experiencing these symptoms but traditional medical exam & blood tests have yet t offer an explanation, consider seeing a natural health practitioner. Creating a personalized health plan can help identify potential causes & offer solutions that will help you feel energized again. I do carry an adrenal product. But I will be closing my shop the 31st. of this month. Time for me to retire. Stop by & save some money now offering 20-30% discount. Some are up to 50 or more % off. Some items I have for free. I will try to start a new article tomorrow. Have a wonderful afternoon & evening.
