Title: Newbie questions about eating grain/soy/corn fed beef
Post by: iliketoeatfood on September 04, 2009, 12:16:34 pm

Hello,
I have a few newbie questions. If the only beef available to me is grainfed stuff, should this be cooked at all? Also, is there much benefit over eating the beef completely raw when compared to cooking in the crockpot? Does raw meat digest fast than cooked and how much faster/slower is the transit time?

And finally, I have a lot more newbie questions so I'm wondering what is the best place to post them?
Thanks.

Cooking is bad for meat period.

raw grass fed > raw grain fed > cooked grass fed > cooked grain fed

Raw is better than cooking in a crockpot. Moist cooking damages the meat less than frying but will inevitably lose nutrients and denature protein.

On digestion there isn't any set time I can recall. Just note that raw meat will feel lighter. You probably will satisfy hunger on less food.

In my experience raw beef feels like it digests a lot faster than fully cooked beef.   Something like 1 hour vs 3-4 hours.

More importantly, raw grass fed yellow fat and red meat is just so dreamy delicious.  Taste of grass fed is just spectacular, the ones I get.
