Where's the Beef?



 Americans are huge beef eaters and eating a burger is probably 75% of their diet. That includes dining out or at all of your fast food eateries.  It has become ubiquitous for causing cancers and other diseases in both young children and adults. 


PREVENTING CANCER AND OTHER DISEASES:  The body is made up of alkaline and acid, whereas if a body is more alkaline, cancers cannot survive. Other things contribute to making the body more acidic, i.e., smoking and the over indulgence of hard liquor. Eating unnaturlaly raised beef produces far too much acidity in your body which creates a natural haven for cancers and other diseases to grow.

 

Adding quality foods to your diet like lean organic cuts of beef, chicken, turkey, and seafood are all great choices that provide iron, amino acids, and other important nutrients that your body needs. Remember what you ingest on the "inside" will reflect on the "outside" like wrinkles, sagging skin, pale color, dull hair and brittle nails

 

This Italian Diva always buys the best quality affordable.  Although my diet is mostly lamb, veal, duck, chicken, venison, and turkey, I seldom eat beef.  But when I do, I always look for organic, grass fed approved, or USDA Process Verified Grass Fed beef.  This certification guarantees that the animal was raised on a diet of 99% grass and had seasonal access to a pasture. Organic cattle are raised far healthier . 

 

AMERICAN CATTLE FARMERS feed and fatten their cattle on a silage  which is a combonation of grain, Antibiotics and growth hormones. There are not a natural  to a cattles' diet and are fed this for faster production and profit.


NOTE: In Italy these practices are banned as well as ALL preservatives

 

FACT: The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) allows conventional farmers to use human waste as fertilizer. Yes, you read that correctly. It's legal to dump peoples’ poop to fertilizer farmland. This is a process being undertaken across the country by cities and towns that dispose tons of waste daily after we flush our toilets. Scientists have analyzed that human waste fertilizer contains not only dangerous germs but heavy metals, such as arsenic, chromium, lead, and mercury, which are not found in manure from livestock

 

FACT:  Did you know that the average baby is born with 200 toxins and carcinogens in its body derived from its mother during pregnancy? Furthermore, by the time kids reach age 2, most have exceeded the lethal limit for the toxins.

 

FACT:  Do you love strawberries?  Did you know that there are 45 pesticide residues on conventionally grown strawberries?  Six are neurotoxins which are harmful to the brain, memory, and reproductive tissues. 


FACT: Avoid "Farm Raised" seafood. Always look for “wild caught” as farmed fish are raised in pens or near the ocean in nets.  This practice does not allow the fish to feed naturally, but are also ingesting their own waste which promotes toxins and carcinogens.
