The Benefits Of Allnatural Pastured Pork

By Brian Collins


There are so many benefits to having livestock raised this way that go directly to the consumer. One of the top advantages of allnatural pastured pork is that the nutritional value of the meat that comes from these animals is undeniably increased. It is also known that this style of raising animals results in meat with less fat, something that many people are looking for.

Many people are paying attention to how the animals that are used for food are treated. Animal rights have never been more important to the general public because more and more is discovered about how these animals can actually suffer at the hands of humans, and more of the cases of the mistreatment of animals are being exposed. People choose meat that comes from grass-fed animals because it is ethical and ensures that no cruelty went into bringing this product to consumers.

This is not just a practice for cows. All-natural or pastured animals are any livestock or poultry that are allowed to roam free in a pasture and go about their natural eating habits. The reason why chickens and pigs aren't called "grass-fed" like cows is that these animals are omnivores and eat much more than just grass.

Those who have realized how horribly animals can be treated often are plagued with guilt. It is important to remember that this is no one person's fault. The entire food industry has been responsible for this for a long time.

There is always a way for an individual to help the fight against the mistreatment of farm animals. The more that people talk about it, the more the issue will be heard by people in power. If the issue is talked about enough, eventually the prices of all-natural foods will go down.

Anyone who has ever been to what is known as a factory farm has seen firsthand the horrors of a CAFO, or concentrated animal feeding operation. Some people are so used to these that they can overlook the gross mistreatment of these animals. It is not hard to see how bad the living conditions are on these farms.

The health risks associated with factory farms are terrifying. These operations are known to have very low standards of hygiene simply because of how many so-called "animal units" are confined there. Manure runoff can contaminate rivers and streams, putting people at risk of many diseases like E. Coli.

Most people don't even want to think about what the animals are fed on factory farms. Anyone who understands how the food chain works can probably understand why it is a bad idea to feed the animals we eat things that are toxic and not natural for them to eat. Nevertheless, these farms feed animals things like plastic, the animals' own feces, and anything to fatten them up without considering the health risks down the road.
