Health benefits of grass-fed beef validated by National Trust

" A recent report from the UK's highly-respected land management organization, the National Trust, has confirmed what Animal Welfare Approved has been advocating for a long time: feeding cattle on grass throughout their life cycle is the most environmentally sustainable way to raise beef. The report, entitled What's Your Beef, concluded that buying high quality, pasture-raised meat means that you are eating healthier, supporting family farms, and helping protect the planet for future generations."
