IS IT TRUE THAT AKAUSHI WAGYU BEEF IS HEALTHY?
"Akaushi beef has a higher concentration of monounsaturated fats relative to saturated fats, a combination that the American Heart Association associates with lower cholesterol levels and potential weight loss. Akaushi beef is high in high-density lipoproteins (HDL) cholesterol as well. HDL is the good kind and helps eliminate LDL (bad cholesterol) from the arteries, often reducing blood pressure and the risk of developing several diseases. Similarly, consuming wagyu may
help you reduce your triglycerides and support your overall heart health.
Furthermore, Akaushi wagyu is rich in oleic acid: a compound found in olive oil that the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) recognizes as a heart-healthy food. Oleic acid has also been shown to help with blood sugar management, insulin control, and the performance of blood vessels. Oleic acid also gives our premium Japanese-American wagyu its signature buttery flavor and texture.
Akaushi wagyu is high in CLA, or conjugated linoleic acid, too. Extensive research has shown this fatty acid to help individuals reduce their cholesterol and limit their risk of developing life-threatening medical conditions such as cardiovascular disease and type II diabetes. It may also boost the performance of the body’s natural immune system.
Our Japanese-American wagyu contains high levels of omega-3s that can support vision health including reducing the risk of conditions such as glaucoma and dry eyes. Omega-3s may also support blood flow to the brain, improving memory and potentially reducing the risk of dementia.
Like other beef products, Akaushi wagyu is a rich source of high biological proteins, meaning that the protein is in a form easily accessible to the human body. Eating wagyu has also been associated with reduced inflammation and a lower risk of developing obesity. It contains other essential nutrients such as iron as well, making our Japanese-American wagyu one of the healthiest, most flavorful meats available in America."
