Free-range beef stir-fry

Grass-fed, free range beef provides fats that help with weight loss and promote youthful skin, bones and heart health. Grass-fed cattle generally get more exercise, making their meat leaner. The quality of fat contained in grass-fed beef is better.it contains high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, which keeps the heart, joints and brain in good shape. Find a farm shop attached to its own pasture. Top round,tenderloin and flank steak are the healthiest , leanest cuts. This is a very nutrient dense food,so you only need to eat 2-4 times a month to get the benefits.
