Fast Track To Fat Loss
Our early ancestors had days when they didn't have much if anything to eat. It may have been due to a poor hunt, drought, or flooding. It may have been because they were on the move and food was scarce between point A and point B. Even as recent as the depression era, people were sometimes struggling to find the next meal.
The word 'Fasting' conjurs up thoughts of hunger and privation. That's not necessarily an adequate picture though. While being hungry long-term is not something to aspire to, missing a meal every once in awhile isn't likely going to hurt anything. There are different methods of fasting that can be tried if you don't like the thought of going without food. Flexible fasting or intermittent fasting is often considered to be an effective way to lose fat, and combined with a low carb diet can be a healthy jump start for weight loss. Whether you want to try traditional fasting or not, your body may be 'fasting' from important nutrients if you aren't eating whole, all-natural foods. Over processed foods lack nutrients our bodies crave.
Read more about the nuts and bolts of intermittent fasting and good nutrition from Kelley Herring on our Discover Blog. And, if you really want to jump start your weight loss, add an exercise routine to the mix. Fitness expert, Scott Mendelson, has some helpful insights this week.
Holistic Farming
US Wellness farms raise animals the way nature intended - roaming green pastures, not confined to a feed lot. When you choose US Wellness as your farmer and online meat market, you can rest assured your food will contain NO antibiotics, NO pesticides, NO herbicides, NO GMOs, and NO added growth hormones. These additives and chemicals have absolutely no place in holistic farming. Our farms are committed to healing the land much like prominent ecologist, Allan Savory, promotes in his popular Ted Talk.

Product Feature | Grass-fed vs Grass-finished - What's The Difference?
We often use the term 100% Grass-fed as a way to define our grass-fed and grass-finished beef. We're not playing word games. On the contrary, we want our customers to know that there is a difference. In fact, you might find grocery store beef that claims to be grass-fed, but that doesn't mean it was always fed grass. It's important to be able to trust your farmer. It's all too common for factory farm operations to make grass-fed claims while fattening (finishing) cattle on grain and feeds prior to harvest. That approach does fatten the animals quickly and cheaply, but it negates much of the nutritional benefit of a natural grass diet. All of our beef, bison, lamb, and dairy are raised solely on native grasses...never anything else. See our Discover Blog for more information.

Visit The Farm | Igor Loves Ice Cream & Cookies
You never know what you might see out in the pasture with the cattle. John Wood, US Wellness founding farmer, takes you out to visit the farms where the cattle are grazing in green pastures. John likes to refer to native pasture grasses as "ice cream & cookies" for the cattle. If you've ever seen a child's excitement over a sweet treat, you might have some idea why he calls it that. Watch this short clip to see the excitement in this herd when the gate is opened to a fresh, well-rested paddock. Igor definitely LOVES his ice cream and cookies.
