Since the 1950s the medical industry has been peddling the myth that high cholesterol causes heart attacks. But here's the truth. As Americans' cholesterol levels have gone down, heart disease has not. It remains the number one cause of death in the United States.
I use a better warning system for heart attacks. I measure my patients' telomeres.
"Just what I wanted!... I have never had bone broth. I wanted to start having a cup each day for my health. I found this broth to be just what I wanted. Had a cup this morning. Added a pinch of sea salt and black pepper. It was delicious!" Tex D. from Brooks, GA
"I highly recommend this broth... This bone broth has really helped with the healing of my son. Thank you US Wellness Meats for providing such good quality."
It seems every year a new diet trend catches the attention of the masses.
Paleo and gluten free have certainly had their time in the spotlight - and for good reason. Most people enjoy better health and find it easier to maintain their ideal weight when they follow a grain-free, ancestral diet. But there's a new diet that is all the rage...
Thanks to Katie of Wellness Mama for this fun fall chili recipe. If you're looking for a different chili recipe to try as we welcome cooler temperatures, don't be afraid to try this version of the famous Cincinnati style that calls for cinnamon, cloves, and dark chocolate!
Farm Photos - US Wellness Cattle
Surreal late August scene with cattle chest deep in Eastern Gamma Grass. This native prairie grass once covered wide swaths of the Midwest in the 1700's. Called ice cream grass, it is the most palatable forage on the menu, and one of the first to be over grazed into near extinction with open grazing.
Sunrise on a humid muggy late summer morning in Northeast Missouri. Cattle are enjoying a select mix of 12 summer annual grasses, broadleaf and legume plants. The mixture does wonders for both above ground graziers and the soil microbes living and working below the surface. The end result is more humus and stored carbon from the atmosphere. Increasing the vigor of the plant community is a very sensible fix on removing excess carbon.
Purchasing Information
Order Minimums
All orders must weigh at least 7 pounds in order to ship, to ensure everything stays frozen during transit.
$75 minimum purchase requirement, since we have built the cost of shipping into the price of each product.
You will never be charged extra for shipping.
There is a $7.50 handling fee upon checkout.
The South Carolina Chicken Bundles, BBQ Sauce, produce and cookbooks ship from separate locations, so they are not included in the 7 lb weight minimum. The shopping cart will keep track and remind you if your order is under the 7 lb limit.
