Terrific New eBook On How To Broil Delicious Foods Everyday we are told what we shouldn’t eat, what we should eat or how frequently we should or should not be eating it and with the hundreds of diets (many of which are supported by famous faces with amazing figures) it is truly amazing that we mere mortals know how to feed ourselves at all! A confusing topic that comes up quite often is eating beef and other red meats. It might be that we struggle with this one because it’s just so tasty and there aren’t many people who won’t salivate at the mention of a juicy beef steak. But the conflicting advice that we read on the Internet, in magazines and on TV about eating beef has turned it into a guilty pleasure with the ‘My Body is a Temple’ types to the ordinary person on the street may opt to cross it off the food list altogether or spend hours working it off at the gym. “Eating beef on a daily basis is bad for you and it sits in your stomach rotting long after you have eaten it. Red meat is full of fat and contributes to heart disease.” Sound familiar? Let me suggest to you that eating red meat can be a healthy option and you could actually eat a nice steak daily if you like. You see, the key to a healthy diet is simply about moderation and getting the right balance. Eating red meat is not so much a problem; it is what else is on your dinner plate and the quality of the beef. Avoid: Red meats that are processed and contain additives E.g. Burgers, frozen meats, SPAM (yuk!), etc Avoid: Eating beef with bread ie hamburgers It is simple to prepare a health Steak dinner: If you want to keep it healthy but add more flavor to your steak? During cooking, just add crushed or chopped garlic, crushed peppercorns, rosemary, mixed herbs or other herbs and spices. Alternatively, marinade the steak beforehand cooking using your own mix of herbs and natural yoghurt. Yum! Other Resources: Beef Choices (PDF at beeffoodservice.com)
Instead: Opt for organic, fresh, pasture-raised beef
Instead: Always eat fresh salad or vegetables with your beef or steak. These contain enzymes which break down fatty deposits.
