Anti-Inflammatory is the current buzz regarding health. Basically the new information addresses lifestyles - how to reduce inflammation inside the body. Research is showing that this inflammation causes aging, heart disease, intestional problems and many other illnesses. The easiest way to relate to it is if you have an cut and it looks puffy and red - that is inflammation and works the same in the body. Attached is a health letter from the Mayo Clinic.

Kimberley Anne asked Focus Health: What is the differnce between the meat you consume today and the meat from 15 years ago? Great question Kimberley!

Pinpointing 15 years ago verses today is not easy. One big difference is cows (and humans in the US) are being fed Genetically Motified Foods (GMO). There is serious concern in the world about the long term safety of GMO foods. The questions are currently being studied. It is easier to go back to before the sixties. Our beef did not contain antibiotics, added hormones, feed additives, flavor enhancers, age-delaying gases and salt-water solutions. These main reason for these additives to our beef was due to large scale beef production and the economics of such. I have attached some websites for anyone with interest in looking further.
