Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Omega-3 fatty acids are good for Cardiovascular health and the reason that fish are recommended part of our diet. However because of mercury contamination, seafood should be limited. Because our cattle are fed grass, Little Alaska Farm beef is a good source of Omega-3’s and without the mercury! However when cattle are finished on grain, the Omega-3’s fats are replaced with Omega 6’s and saturated fats. 

Omega-3 fats, CLA, Vitamin E and all the good things in our beef come from eating their natural diet of green leafy plants, mainly grass.

CLA, or Conjugated Linoleic Acid is a potent cancer fighting substance that naturally occurs in beef cattle. Cattle fed a natural grass diet have significantly higher levels of CLA’s than grain fed beef.

 

Benefits from CLA’s include:

¬  Prevents tumor growth and development

¬  Reduces risk of Breast Cancer                                                   

¬  Prevents plaque formation in arterial walls

¬  Promotes lean body mass while reducing fat deposition

¬  Exhibits anti-diabetic effects
