What is nutrient density?

Most of my life I have been a gardener, growing my own vegetables. I have learned about creating a soil that is nutrient dense. Adding carbon materials, such as leaves, twigs, and other organic matter has resulted in a transformation. The soil health is apparent from the quality of the vegetables with taste and nutrient value.

Sadly, most foods we find in the marketplace have been highly processed and lack essential amino acids which are the building blocks of protein. These essential amino acids are needed for digesting food, building muscle, and losing weight. Amino acids are found in dairy, beans, red meat, soy, and some kinds of fish. Most folks are not getting the right balance of amino acids as well as vitamins & minerals.

University studies found that organic vegetables and fruits are no more nutrient dense than regular vegetables & fruits. However, organic produce has less pesticides than conventional crops. And due to this difference, organic produce had a much higher level of antioxidant compounds than regular produce. These contain flavonoids and carotenoids which protect cells from aging and prevent the type of cell damage that can lead to cancer.

Regenerative Agriculture is the soul of the soil

Soil is where the health of our entire system begins. Regenerative agriculture feeds soil microbes, soil feeds plants, plants feed livestock, and this exchange continues up the food chain all the way to us humans.

It’s no coincidence that as our soils have been depleted, so have the amounts of vitamins, nutrients, and minerals in your food. In fact, the food that you’re eating today is far less nutritious than it was 50 years ago. While you may be consuming more calories, your body is starving for proper nutrition. 

Beyond the health of your body, restoring our soils offers a proven solution to some of the greatest systemic issues facing humanity today. Healthy soils sequester carbon, impact the quality of our air and water, mitigate the effects of flooding and drought, as well as contribute to a more resilient food system in the face of climate change.

We have the beef you need here!

When we compare the nutrients of grass-fed beef to industrial beef, the comparison is not even close. Grass-fed beef has more nutrients than conventionally raised beef. Grass-fed beef is derived from cows who have access all their lives to pastures alive with phyto-nutrient grass. These are variations that we cannot consume. These nutrients are stored in the animal’s fat and provide higher levels of cancer fighting antioxidants.

When you try this grass-fed beef, your brain will know that you are tasting a difference that is unmatched! Go here to order some of the best beef you will ever taste!
