today we’re going to discuss the

difference between grass-fed burgers and

conventional burgers is it really worth

the extra cost because it is a bit more

expensive you know you’ll see all sorts

of things on the label it’s natural

right or it’s natural beef and

handcrafted it’s fresh

free-range 100% pure beef well these

things mean nothing legally okay ideally

if you can find it you don’t just want

grass-fed you want one or percent

grass-finished okay now a lot of times

when you buy grass-fed beef if it

doesn’t say grass-finished chances are

it was finished with grains and I always

wondered about this word finished what

does that mean it means fattened because

if you take a cow and you feed it just

grass it’s gonna take a long time to

actually get it to be a thousand or

twelve hundred pounds it’s much faster

to fatten the cattle and grains just

like we do with people right we put them

on the food pyramid as their diet so the

word finished means fattened and you

might think well is it gonna take a

couple weeks maybe a couple of months

actually it takes at least four months

okay I’m putting them on grains now if

it doesn’t say organic then that means

it’s GMO and this is really what I want

to talk about because when I talk about

GMO grains sometimes people just kind of

glaze over they don’t even really know

what I mean so I do want to cover that

in just a second first let’s cover how

many carbs are in a burger zero carbs so

that’s totally keto friendly 14 percent

is protein you would think it’d be a lot

more right thirty percent is fat and

just about almost 50% of it is water

so you have all these things connected

with the burger being healthy or not is

it grass-fed is it organic there’s an

antibiotics hormones preservatives are

you consuming the bun with that burger

are you adding ketchup the fries the

coke and all these things well of course

we’re not going to recommend that but

the most important thing you need to

understand is this GMO thing and that’s

want to cover next so what is GML it’s a

genetic modification of something and

we’re talking about grains primarily

corn and soy okay

so whether a cow is being finished or

fattened with corn or soy or it’s a

factory farm and they’re just consuming

corn in soy on a regular basis they’re

being exposed to glyphosate now if it’s

organic grains they’re not being exposed

to glyphosate and this is another point

where people kind of glaze over the word

glyphosate what is this well it’s a weed

killer okay

it’s an herbicide and it’s the same

chemical and Roundup Ready that you

would spray the weeds around your yard

here’s what you need to know it’s linked

with non-hodgkins lymphoma if you go to

Google right now and you type glyphosate

the first three ads are going to be

attorney ads and they’re gonna ask a

question do you have non-hodgkins

lymphoma and there’s all sorts of other

variations of this type of cancer and by

the way this is one of the most common

cancers in the US and it’s also common

in UK and Canada and other parts of the

world because if you had this cancer it

could have been caused by exposure to

glyphosate right now in present time

there are over 9000 lawsuits involving

this one chemical the farms in the US

alone could use about a pound of

biphosphate for every acre of cropland

every year there is over 80 thousand

metric tons of glyphosate put into the

environment just in the u.s. that’s

every single year the problem is that

this chemical is accumulative and it

does create problems in her body and

that go beyond just cancer so if you’re

going to consume a conventional burger

maybe not do it as often so in summary

I’m not trying to scare you

I’m trying to increase your awareness on

GMO and the importance of doing

grass-finished okay

and organic thanks for watching so if
