Consume what your wallet allows....better than Doritos

I have a reaction to grain fed beef that I don’t have with with grass fed/ finished beef. I suspect it’s the hormones and/or the grain. I believe in “you are what you eat and you are what you ate ate.” I’ll drive old cars, wear non branded clothes, not eat out frequently or spend on expensive toys or vacations to spend more on food so I can live a longer healthier life.

Not going to get your K2 in sufficient amounts from the grain-fed.

Dr Chaffey compares them as Gold and Silver medals. Gold may be the best, but silver beats out anyone else too!

52 days carnivore. Bought my first Tomahawk steak this morning. Just happy with myself and life. ❤❤❤❤❤

The difference is the corn they are fed most times is gmo, not to mention the steroids and growth hormones and types of mineral licks they consume that is then passed on to you through the fat and flesh

Grass fed ..good Grain fed..bad Almost all grain is GMO nowdays 😢

Grain fed gives me stomach burning… and grass fed goes down great

I buy grass-fed ground beef and USDA Choice steaks (grain-finished) as this fits my food budget better. I suppose grass-finished has a better omega 3 to omega 6 fat ratio. Dr. Robert Lustig & Dr. Paul Mason have videos on this topic too.

Grass 💯 no GMO feed.

I don't know where your journey has taken you, and I mean zero disrespect. I truly respectfully say that I have a similar body type to yours but with less weight and love handles at 6'2/muscular build and I eat WAY too much sugar on top of eating primarily meat. Zero dairy, etc. The best I've felt was from over a month of grass fed/finished steak, beef liver, and pasture raised eggs. I had WAY too much energy, lost over 25lbs with zero working out (I'm in my mid 30's btw), and I've tried replicating this with grain fed beef and just cannot see similar results even after gaining another 30lbs. After researching and learning that the grain fed to the cattle is pumped with estrogen mimicking substances I truly believe that to be the reason. And I actually raise my own hens for eggs now and control their diet with my own organic garden and feed so I know my eggs aren't the variable.

I think as far as Grass fed beef goes I think because of a cows digestive system it’s not that big of a deal. As for chickens I think being able to eat insects and worms might benefit the quality of their meat and eggs.

I like both. I eat both. But I will admit that because grain-fed is slightly cheaper I've been having it more as a staple, recently. Glad to know there's not a huge difference. But I really do like the taste of grass-fed and I know it has a better Omega fatty acid profile.

Contact your local farmers is key thank you keep it local

Omega 3 content and 6:3 ratio is why I eat grass fed grass finished. Lost 130lb doing so. I eat chuck and ground mainly

I've tested it twice now. I have a varicose vein leg. It blows out every time I accidentally or sometimes knowingly eat some sort of carb or sugar. Lactose I have zero reaction to so dairy fat seems to be fine. With that said, I've been a carnivore for 8 months now. At 3 months in or so, I grabbed some beef from the grocery store(grain finished), and my leg blew out really badly after a few days of eating grocery store beef. Grass fed beef is more dense beef, and my leg pretty much completely heals so long as I stick to grass fed cows. The sugar in the grain finished cows definitely has an effect, at least with me. I just tried it again a week ago, and my leg blew out even worse than before and only had one meal of grain finished this time, not a few days. So, in my experience, I'd stay away from the grain finished.

I usually get grass fed ground beef because it’s still affordable but not with steaks.

Ignore grass fed vs. grain fed in regard to nutritional content, this is marketing using deception by those who are selling their product. Eat what you like the taste of. Some people like the sweet and tender steaks of grain fed, others like the gamey taste of grass fed..... If it isn't a little gamey... it ISNT grass fed(pro-tip) Personally I'll take my grain finished beef all day long, We just bought a Prime quality beef from a local "factory farmer" and my goodness, those T-Bones melt in your mouth. My qualifications of my opinion are the operation of my "factory farm" that has been in my family for over 150 years.

I get healthier on grass fed but sicker on grain fed. Although I have quite a few autoimmune conditions so I doubt there would be a huge difference for the average person

Yeah it's very difficult to find and it's usually so expensive...

I digest grass fed SOOOOO much better.

The fat on a grass finished steak is always more golden and the meat is more flavourful so I treat myself every now and then

Isn't there a difference in omega 3 vs omega 6 ratio between grassfed and grainfed?

The 'science' may not be there... but I think it's common sense that we should be eating healthy animals that had a good life. I can eat the grass fed/ finished stuff that I get raw... it has zero smell and it cooks much different. I can't say that about the stuff I get out of the case at the store.

If you’re eating it raw as it’s presented to us in nature you definitely want grass-fed it tastes much more natural

Grain finished is much cheaper and in my opinion tastes far far better. Like no comparison. So, there would have to be a significant difference. I've been on carnivore over a year with normal publix grain fed meat and I've gotten great reaults.

What about estrogen on grain fed?

I prefer grass fed. I feel more energised by it, so it's what I buy if I can. But if there is no choice I'll gladly eat other beef.

Grass fed or Grain fed beef? Yes, please!

most people should just eat what they like & can afford because the macronutrient profile is going to be the biggest factor in weight loss and feeling good. for SOME PEOPLE (with like autoimmune issues), you might be sensitive to lower quality meats/oils and that's when it makes more sense to be strict about 'clean keto'.

I go to the farmers market in my area and the rancher there is insanely expensive. She has great cows and I would pay it if I could but I literally can't afford it 🤷🏻‍♂️

Every grass finished steak I have ever had was tougher than grain finished. The high quality stuff is too gamey and has a somewhat sweet taste that I don't care for. I just buy mine from a local farm that grow theirs right there.

Grass fed tastes more like concentrated beef , but it has less fat typically.

All Beef is grass fed, however some beef is grain finished for the ast three months to improve the fat marbling !

We prefer the flavor and price of grass fed, grain finished beef.

Are you what they ate? I would suspect your body can adjust for ratios of omega chains. A variety of animal flesh should be optimal. A healthy body will take what it wants and use it, store it or expel it by hook or crook. Lol. Our bodies are truly a gift.

Ignore the grass fed vs grain fed. Just eat meat!!!

I usually get grain-fed but get grass-fed every so often because of the cost. I feel better on grass-fed although I could be lying or it's placebo, but I don't feel bad on grain-fed

In order to save money and do carnivore with some vegetables I eat a lot of eggs. I get the cheapest pasture raised eggs I can find and happy egg co’s free range eggs (best free range egg quality I’ve seen) to not break the bank. I also eat a lot of wild caught salmon. Steak is a luxury for me so to get affordable steaks I get them from Costco.

Flavor

Thanks

I can't afford "high end" meat. So i buy in bulk from Costco. Cheaper cuts.

Thanks for your honesty ,

Thank you for your help!

There’s more than two choices. I prefer grass fed because that is a cow doing what a cow is supposed to do. But there are some grain finished cows that are okay to eat. However the issue is, were they given hormones? Is there still antibiotics in the meat? These are very serious. Did the cows roam a pasture like a happy /healthy cow getting exercise in the sun and elements? Exactly what percentage of their diet was grain? And was that grain gmo? We have more important questions to ask in the near future also-were they given multiple vaccines containing mRNA and who knows what else?

ty

The book ‘Sacred Cow’ discusses this in great length and come to the same conclusion: cows are good in ‘upcycling’, so no need to spend your precious inflated money on 😅

This is good to know, and I have heard the same from other people as well. I would love to eat nothing but grass fed+finished beef, but its so much more expensive. And living on a small island, local farms aren't slaughtering meat everyday.

I eat grassfed if its a couple dollars more because it supports land regeneration , way healthier for the animals and us compared to cancentrated animal feeding ops-cafos , and the wef folks want to get rid of free range except for themselves .We get soylent green .

Grass fed is twice the cost. I compared grass and grain fed cooking exactly the same at the same time.grass fed tastes and smells different. No better. Not worse. Both are healthy to eat. I can afford the grain finished. So I will keep buying that and continue with my healthy ketovore lifestyle.

Our rancher will do either upon request. The grain finished cattle are only grain fed for the last week.

I like the taste of grass fed. But I found a neighbor who owns a whole sale meat business. So now I buy grain fed for half the price of the stores. 🤣. Buy your meat whole food and get a deep freezer if you are doing carnivore. You need to be a wealthy person if you are buying it daily from the store lol.

Shawn, I think if one were to test serum Omega 6 to Omega 3 ratios by people eating only grain finished and then have them switch to grass finished I think you would see a different result in the ratios. The vast majority of people do not have that test done. And we know lowering Omega 6 is better. Just a thought .

I like grass fed, gain finished. It's taste. Eat what you can afford.

Grain fed tastes better.

What about the mRNA that goes into the feedlot beef? The pasture raised beef doesn’t have any of the poisons that are purposefully put into the feedlot beef.

Conclusion The results of this review revealed that beef cattle fed on a grass-feeding diet contained less total fat than the beef from the cattle fed on grain-feeding. The reduction of the total fat content had notably influenced the fatty acid composition of beef for human consumption. A 100 g beef meat from grass-fed cattle contained 2,773 mg less total SFA than from the same 100 g beef meat from grain-fed beef. Grass-fed beef also showed a more favorable SFA lipid profile containing less cholesterol-raising fatty acids (C12:0 to C16:0) but also contained a lesser amount of cholesterol-lowering C18:0 fatty acid in comparison to grain-fed beef. In terms of fatty acids that are essential to human health, grass-fed beef showed higher TVA, total omega-3, and long-chain n-3 PUFA than grain-fed beef. Increased long-chain n-3 PUFA in grass-fed beef are EPA, DPA, and DHA. In Hanwoo, grain-fed showed higher EPA and DHA than grass-fed beef. The increased n-3 PUFA in grass-fed beef also reduced the n-6 to n-3 ratio as compared to grain-fed beef. The net effect of grass-feeding increased the n-3 PUFA but decreased MUFA due to the decreased total fat content. Grass-fed beef increased functional lipid components (omega-3 PUFA) while decreasing undesirable SFA in comparison to grain-fed beef, and thus could exert protective effects against several diseases ranging from cancer to CVD. Although grain-fed beef showed decreased long-chain n-3 PUFA, consumers should be aware that greater portions of grain-fed beef could also achieve a similar dietary intake of long-chain omega-3 FAs. Noteworthy, grain-fed beef contained higher total MUFA that have beneficial roles in ameliorating CVD risks than grass-fed beef.

Regeneratively raised is the highest nutrient density and best fat profile- but it’s also the most expensive and you gotta make your own choices. For me, it’s worth it to support small business owners and people who work with and care about the land and animals.

Grain finished tastes better. I know that.

Thanks for sharing

And there’s the pre-emerge herbicide they spray on hay fields so unless I know the farmers I’ll stick to the lower price and not pay anymore for a label. I believe they use something similar on grain seed like corn to keep the weeds down during the maturation of young corn.

Grass fed cattle are fed grains in the settling yards before the end and the only way to get 100% grass fed is from regenerative farming

We prefer grain fed

I think its misleading to fail to mention that some people have bad histamine reactions to the ground beef. I used to have digestion problems for months and it took me forever to figure out that it was the ground beef that wasn't agreeing with me. They weren't mild digestion problems either, I had to see a doctor and unfortunately they didn't help. I haven't had those same issues since eating grass more often.

I don't have the option, the grass-fed/finished is more than I can afford.

Lots of ppl don’t have access to a local rancher. Or 1 thts willing help help u out. Or 1 within a decent distance to ur town. In our case specifically here in south east Ky, there’s just nobody. My last name in Hurt, there’s another family with our last name here tht have a ranch, but won’t sell anything to the general public at all. It’s the largest in our county. An the only other option is a 2 & / hr drive to Lexington, Ky. They have a farm share and it’s $250 a mo.

All cows eat grass.. grain fed 30 before slaughter m as kes meat more tender.

Grass fed Hamburger is fabulous. The Grass fed steaks are not as tasty, to me as corn fed. The last 3 years I've gotten Grass fed from a Local rancher. I'm getting the corn fed next time.

In the uk I mainly eat lamb as I think they eat grass longer than the cows do here. New Zealand lamb is grass finished and affordable

Carnivore for the best health. Thank you doctor Shawn Baker. Ribeye Rules!

Very true❤

Any update on this Shaun ?

The science is already out on grain vs grass, u just gotta look, i suggest looking into those who speak about it: thomas delauer, dr sten ekberk, and dr eric berg. Grass fed is just the superior option without question if your a person focused on health and longevity, but most of us will be spending on what we can afford for sure, we will all kick the bucket eventually.

Cant find grass fed

It's not for cheapest price, for me it is difficult to find grass fed meat.

They have a different flavor so I buy grass fed ground beef(about 5.99-6.50 a lb) or Wagyu ground beef (similar price). Wagyu is a lot greasier but is absolutely delicious. Grass fed is stronger flavor.

If you buy it right, grass finished is not necessarily more expensive.

All cows are grass fed. Not all are grass finished. Shop at your local butcher shop or farms. Thanks for the videos Dr.

Grass -fed organs and fat more than muscle.

Grain fed tastes better and has more of the fat you need in your diet. Most grass fed is bull$hit, so you have to spend a LOT of time figuring out who's telling the truth, and the ranchers who produce a legit grass fed product offer a VERY expensive product.

What about corn finished

i prefer the taste of grain finished over grass personally.

Any different than 100% grasfed i experienced as not good.

What about omega 3s?

Grain fed is with GMO so I try to avoid when I can

What about organic or non organic?

Idk. I don't care for grass finished. It's very Venison like which is fine if you don't harvest your own deer every year. I prefer the marbling and fat of grain finished 😊

Yup, not a lot of difference.

I find that grass fed has almost no far

I don't care for the taste of grass fed/finished. I purchase a side of beef at a time from our local butcher who purchases from a local rancher who grain-finishes. Our butcher said there are definitely differences in the content and quality of grain ranchers finish their cattle with, and our butcher happens to know his source uses good quality grains. He told me, "After all, I feed my family with it." Good point!

Grass fed beef is such an idiotic term… because grain is grass lol . Pasture raised would be a better term

Did you have your eyebrows done?

I raise my own beef and I grain finish it so it does not taste gamey.

The only difference is the omega 3:6 ratios is slightly better in the grass fed. YOu can just supplement omega 3, or eat some fish anyway. Also they say "well there's pollutants in what they feed them in feedlots". That's just vegan propaganda. They are fed soybean cake and silage (left over corn and fiber). Both of those are byproducts of products for human consumption. And the way they're processed, all of the nasty glycophosphate and such get washed out into those human consumable products. So what those cattle are eating is cleaner than the soyslop they feed humans LOL.

I’d eat grass fed and PKD. I’m in Spain and grass fed doesn’t exist. We don’t use anglosaxon terminology. Meat is meat. Of course it’s grain finished it’s almost impossible 100% grass fed . My butcher knows everything about meat from generations. Meat in Spain delicious one of best in the world. The world is not USA.

How does the good doctor know that one of the best reasons to eat grass-fed is not what you get, but what you don't get. You avoid all of the pesticides that are used in the feed that is given to grain-fed cows. Disappointed in you, doctor...

Grass fed...grain finished last month is my favorite

Do not buy your meat from stores.

Thank you Wallet thanks you too his name is Wally

Love me some love handles…..😊
