RE: Why Steemians Should Choose Grass-Fed Beef
Hi Charles, great article. I just took a look at your Instagram account and noticed that you drink Bulletproof Coffee. What are your thoughts on this? A friend recommended it, but it's always nice to hear from another source. Thanks!
It's a quick way to clog up your arteries.
I am assuming you are referring to the idea that saturated fats are bad for human health as this is still a common myth believed by most of society. Humans have been eating meat for millions of years. Animal meat naturally contains saturated fats. The idea that these fats are bad for our health makes no sense from a evolutionary biology perspective. In addition, new science has emerged that shows there is no evidence that consuming saturated fat contributes to heart disease: http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/early/2010/01/13/ajcn.2009.27725.abstract
The real causes of clogged arteries and cardiovascular disease is high carbohydrate consumption (sugar), excess omega 6 intake, and trans fats (hydrogenated vegetable oils).
Bulletproof Coffee is a great way to practice intermittent fasting, while also obtaining vitamins and minerals. The key is the type of butter you use. It really should come from grass fed cows.
