Darryl:  Where can I get grass-fed meat in London?

 

I am often asked about buying grass-fed meat in London.  For those who follow primal or paleo diets meat - that is closer to how animals are naturally reared is a preference.  There are many health benefits including: an increase in meat quality and nutrient-density, better good fats and less bad fats, and an improved omega 3:6 profile.

There are numerous health benefits to grass-fat meats as opposed to grain-fed meats and at the very least you are unlikely to encounter growth hormones and antibiotic contamination of the meat.

I am fortunate to have a butcher 5 minutes work from me that sells naturally reared and permanently pastured meat.  I can question the butcher on the source of the meat and I would personally prefer this to ordering frozen meat online but not all of us have this option.

For those who live in London there are numerous weekly farmer's markets.  Here is a list of farmer's markets in London
