Default Grass Fed vs. Grain Fed Beef: The Cook Off

Ted shuffled out of his cave and grunted these great (and sometimes not
so great) words of knowledge:

> After the recent discussion about grass fed beef vs. grain fed beef, I

> http://www.allenbrothers.com/ and also ordered our newly-found Neff
> Family Ranch ribeyes (grass fed) http://www.nfrnaturalbeef.com/ . We

> carefully halving each so the DH and I can compare one against the
> other. Will make a full report back. After reading about the feed lots

One thing no one seems to mention is that grass feed beef has about 400
times the amount of CO-Q10 enzyme (necessary for proper heart function).
This enzyme is leeched from the body by several different medications,
the most common medication are the "statins" (used for high cholesterol).
