Eat like the Caveman

While perusing through the Internet, I found a recommendation from Mark Sisson (of primal living fame) of which 5 meats to avoid:

1. Cured Meats - full of nitrates which have been linked to oral, lung, stomach and brain cancers.

2. Cold Cuts - along with nitrates, they're processed and full of sodium.

3. Ground Meats - parts are parts and ground meats can come from hundreds of different parts.

4. Grain-fed Beef - Grass-fed beef is leaner and contain more Omega-3's.

5. Non-organic Meat - unless you want antibiotics and growth hormones in your meat.

Talk to your folks a the local co-op markets and support your local farmer!
