<p>toneranger, I hadn’t known that grass-fed beef was lower in fat. I just came across this slide show on “superfoods” for weight loss and cardiac health:</p>
<p>[12</a> Superfoods for Faster Weight Loss: Meats (Pasture-Raised and Free-Range) - 5 - MSN Health & Fitness - Nutrition Slide Show](<a href="MSN)</p>
<p>and this is what it says about grass fed beef:</p>
<p>“A 3.5-ounce serving of grass-fed beef has only 2.4 grams of fat, compared with 16.3 grams for conventionally raised beef. In fact, grass-fed beef is so much more nutritious than commodity beef that it’s almost a different food.”</p>
<p>The next slide is on fish:</p>
<p>"Generally, small, oily ocean fish (herring, mackerel, sardines) are low in toxins and score highest in omega-3s. Wild Alaskan salmon, Pacific halibut, rainbow trout, and yellowfin tuna are generally low in toxins and high in nutrients. And then there are fish that we should avoid at all times: farmed (or Atlantic) salmon, farmed tilapia, Atlantic cod, Chilean sea bass, and farmed shrimp. "</p>
<p>I started a thread on sardines recently, because I wanted to learn to like them, and someone posted a recipe for Sardine Tonnato from Epicurious that is fantastic - one of the best things I’ve ever made.</p>
