Dear John,
The buzz word this past week has been cloned
beef. Not to my surprise, the first major
decision by FDA Commissioner Andrew C. Von
Eschenbach will have a long tail.
Commissioner Eschenbach approved the sale of
cloned beef into the market place on December
28, 2007 without labeling it as cloned. Sadly,
Americans will be subject to another
food experiment that will have answers
decades down the road.
This rolls my personal clock back to the dawn
of Monsanto's BST growth hormone campaign for
dairy cows. In my past as a conventional
farmer, I
was an invited guest to Monsanto's R&D
facility in St. Louis, MO. in 1994 during
Monsanto's campaign to forgo labeling BST
milk in the marketplace. Myself, and 30 other
farmers were there to get a look at the
infancy of GMO crops.
Not being bashful, I asked the tour guide in
her opening presentation what reaction she
had to the public out cry over not labeling
BST milk. To my surprise, the tour guide
became flushed red in the face and informed
all of us that there would be no questions
outside of our specific mission for the day.
That was my first glimpse of FDA and
corporate greed in action.
In 1996 GMO soybeans were grown commercially
with FDA's blessing. Curiously, the EU said
no based on concerns from their scientific
community. Consumers in Europe have a much
different attitude on food based on the food
disruptions incurred during the greats wars
of the 20th century.
Long story short, their is
evidence
a small percentage of the consuming
population has not reacted well to the dense
GMO proteins and the damage will continue for
this sector of the population. Sadly, BST
is another estrogen source in the diet being
blamed for lower male fertility and early on
set of puberty in girls. As the clock rolls
forward, this will tail will grow in length.
Time will tell if cloned animals will have
their own
distinguishable health tail similar to the
first two
FDA experiments I have witnessed in the last 13
years.
Rest assured, cloned animals will never grace
our landscape.

How Are T-bones, Filets and NY Strips
Related?
T-bone
steaks are noteworthy due to their shape
and flavor. The T-bone is easily recognized
by beef consumers world wide. However, many
do not realize that the smaller of the two
muscles is actually the tenderloin muscle.
Consequently, buying T-bones
is a clever and cheaper way to enjoy the
tenderloin muscle! Many grillers like the
added zest the bone will bring to the cooking
process.
The U.S. Wellness NY
strip is actually the large T-bone
muscle with
the bone removed and tenderloin off. Leaving
the bone on and tenderloin muscle off creates
the KC strip steak which Kansas City is
famous for. U.S. Wellness creates the
wonderful boneless NY strip steak in 14
ounce and 8
ounce offerings.
This discussion is creating hunger pains!

EMAIL QUESTIONS TO: eathealthy@grasslandbeef.com
.......................................................................................................
Dr. Serrano,
Can you recommend U.S. Wellness beef products
that would contribute to the strengthening
and health of the thyroid to increase body
temperature.
Sincerely,
Greg G.
.................................................................................................
Dear Greg:
If you are consuming grass-fed beef to
increase your body temperature, there are no
research studies showing that; however, as a
physician that takes care of a lot of
patients that struggle with weight, I
recommend to all of them to consume grass-fed
beef.
To answer your specific question, I will have
to say yes, but if you want a healthy
thyroid, you must consume organic vegetables,
and try to stay away from wheat and sometimes
milk if you are having problems with your
immune system or thyroid.
Best of success,
Eric
