Not All Meats are Created Equal

There’s new evidence that the meat you buy at the drive through or the grocer might not be the same quality that we grew up with. The problem is you probably don’t recognize the difference. And that puts your health at risk and increases your chances of developing type 2 diabetes.

Take a few minutes to read today’s Health Alert, and you’ll discover why even the new “healthy choices” on fast food restaurants menus may not be so good for you and how to solve the problem.

* The Great Change from the Hamburger Mom Made *

I’ve seen many patients completely reverse heart disease and diabetes. For example, L.R., tossed out his Lipitor and was able to stop taking insulin just by following The Doctor’s Heart Cure eating program which includes red meat.¹

But, you should know there are several fundamental differences between the meat you should eat and the food you’ll get at the drive through or even in the freezer at your local grocery. Let me explain.

When you buy red meat from a freezer or from a fast food restaurant, you’re buying a new kind of meat. Most of the cattle used in the modern food industry receive antibiotics and are fed grains instead of grass. When you combine that with the additives, preservatives, and trans fats that food processors add to the meat you have a lethal combination. The new studies showing processed meats put you at risk for many adverse health effects, including increased insulin resistance and full blown diabetes doesn’t surprise me.^2-3

* Keep Your Insulin in Check and Prevent Diabetes – Buy Organic *

Wild game, wild fish, free ranging organic chicken, and organic grass-fed red meat do not contain chemicals, antibiotics, or hormones. When you buy these organic products straight from the butcher or meat section of your local market, you are getting fresh, unadulterated, healthy protein.

More grocery stores are adding organic and free range meat to their selections. If your local supermarket doesn’t carry it ask the head butcher to order grass-fed organic meat. I did. So if you live in my neck of Florida, you can go to any of the area’s Publix Supermarkets and buy Maverick brand beef.

To Your Good Health,
