Everything you do not know about organic meat and its benefits

As the years go by, are you more worried about your diet, aren’t you? Are you more caring about the manufacturing processes and the industry ecological commitment? Then, it’s the perfect time to know more about the advantages of eating organic meat.

Many people believes that organic meat comes from animals enjoying a free life, but the reality it’s different. Organic does not mean a green field! The companies that develop this activity, have to meet many requirements.

At first place, the European regulation contemplates specific measures for organic livestock with regard to habitability on farms with the aim of avoiding animal stress and promoting growth in semi-freedom. This type of livestock allows animals to grow at their natural pace and in adequate living conditions. The animals are not manipulated intensively to achieve greater production. The feeding of these animals is based on natural pastures, milk preferably from their own mother, and organic feed and fodder, free of pesticides, fertilizers and transgenic. In addition, if the animal becomes ill, homeopathic treatments are used excluding hormones or drugs that may harm their health. But the requirements do not stop here, the slaughterhouse and the butchery also have to overcome sanitary controls.
