| 5 Reasons to Switch to Grass Fed |
- Healthier for You and Your Family
If you are already worried about the effects of meat on your family's heath, you can stop worrying! Pasture raised beef is lower in total fat than regular beef and is rich in Omega 3 fatty acids.
- Taste the Difference
You'll probably be able to taste the difference with the first bite of Ephraim Mountain Farm grass fed beef hamburger. What you can taste is clean meat. You aren't consuming a lot of antibiotics and hormones.
- Environmentally Responsible
All cattle eat a lot, and all cattle make a lot of waste. Most all livestock live in huge feed lots, and waste has nowhere to go but down. It seeps into groundwater, finds its way into our rivers and pollutes the water. In fact, animal waste has already polluted many of our waterways. In addtion, the corn and grains that are used to feed grain fed beef have been sprayed with pesticides that not ony get into the animal, but harm our environment.
- Humane Treatment
Time is money to the average cattle rancher. Their goals are to get cattle big and fat as fast as possible, and to make as much money as possible. How do these ranchers speed up the process? They use grain, hormones and antibiotics liberally to move Mother Nature along.
- Safer Meat
Why? Because they are eating a diet suited for their bodies, as Mother Nature intended.
