Up to 4 times higher in omega 3 and with an ideal and healthy omega 3: omega 6 ratio of 1:3. Grain fed beef has high (and undesirable) levels of omega 6.
Three to five times higher levels of CLA which is a potent anti-cancer nutrient. The levels of CLA drops sharply when grain is fed to cattle and it never fully recovers. This is why it is important to know that your beef is a true lifetime grass fed beef and not just a part-time grass fed beef.

Healthier and lower in fat than chicken with skin removed.
