As many Omega-3s per serving as salmon (three to six times the amount of omega-3s as grain fed animals)
-
The highest-know levels of CLA (conjugated linolaic acid), a fat-blocker and anti-carcinogen with the potential to reduce the risk of cancer, obesity, diabetes, and a number of immune disorders.
-
A high concentrations of selenium, a natural trace element that acts as a mood elevator.

Four times the amount of vitamin E found in grain-fed beef.
