Slow Cooker Vegetable Beef Soup
You've heard it a million times: "I don't eat red meat for reasons X, Y, and Z." And while we do understand that there are dietary reasons for ditching the protein, your weight loss goals should not be one of them. In fact, grass-fed beef is higher in stearic acid than conventionally raised beef. Stearic acid is a type of long-chain saturated fat that slows digestion and plays a key role in regulating the energy-producing powerhouses of our cells AKA the mitochondria. Not to mention, studies link stearic acid with lowered LDL cholesterol and reduced inflammation.
