Nutrient Quality PT-1

November 17, 2018

That’s an offal amount of meat! B-vitamins & Iron.
•
You need iron to make 5-HTP the precursor for serotonin.
•
80-90% of serotonin is manufactured in the gut & around 70% of our immune system is located in the GI tract. So iron deficiency, GI distress, & immune activation could be an underlying cause of depression”. Eat your red meat, people.
Did you know, 1 in 6 Americans have diagnosed depression & there are more prescriptions written for SSRIs in the US than people to take them.
•
Also invest in quality meat. There was a headline about a toppled semi not too long ago- It was full of Skittles (yes, the candy) that were headed to feed cows. If you want to eat Skittle cows, totally up to you, but probablyy better to stick with (healthy) grass-fed cows. There is a huge difference in the price and quality of meats.. grass fed, free range, pasture finished, grain fed, grain finished, corn fed, soy finished. Did you know grain fed cows have a higher Oestrogen profile in the meat!?

How good is steak, seriously? But usually we’re lazyAF & just buy mince because it’s quick & easy. Or chicken because we ‘think’ it’s healthier!
Chicken actually has a much higher Omega6:Omega3 fatty acid ratio? I’m not saying chicken is bad but, yes too much Omega6 can be bad.
Mix it up, eat a variety, eat all the colours of the rainbow....
And every now and then swap that chicken breast fillet for a steak!

Do you even eat offal meat?
