July 2024



 

Summer is upon us, and you definitely know you're in South Louisiana. Fortunately, we've had ample rainfall, and the pastures look great. Our cattle are fattening up very well. The bulls are with the mama cows and should be finishing our breeding season soon.

We are thrilled to report that our beef sales have been doing exceptionally well, thanks to you, our loyal customers. Our sales of 1/4, 1/2, and whole sides of beef have been very robust. This option offers the best price per pound due to buying in bulk. If you have freezer space, consider this option—you will save a lot of money in the long run!

Thank you for your continued support!

Dr. Shannon Gonsoulin, DVM

Heart Health: The Cardiovascular Nutritional Benefits of Grassfed Beef


Grassfed beef isn't just delicious; it's also a healthier option for your heart. Here are some key cardiovascular benefits of including grassfed beef in your diet:

Lower in Total Fat: Grassfed beef is leaner than grain-fed beef, meaning it contains less total fat. This can help reduce the risk of heart disease.


Higher in Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Grassfed beef has higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, which are known to reduce inflammation and lower blood pressure. These fatty acids are also crucial for maintaining heart health.


Rich in Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA): CLA is a type of fat found in higher amounts in grassfed beef. Studies suggest that CLA can help reduce the risk of heart disease and improve overall cardiovascular health.


Contains Antioxidants: Grassfed beef is rich in antioxidants like vitamin E and beta-carotene, which help fight oxidative stress and support heart health.
Lower in Calories: Since grassfed beef is leaner, it naturally contains fewer calories, making it a great option for those looking to maintain a healthy weight and support cardiovascular wellness.


Choosing grassfed beef not only supports your local ranchers but also provides a nutritious and heart-healthy option for you and your family. Enjoy the delicious taste and health benefits of our high-quality grassfed beef!
