Is that why cardiologists recommend longhorn over commercial?
WTH does this mean??? yeah sure and doc oz knows all the answers. Remember the heart association were part of the animal fat smear campaign.
You'll never get the AHA behind beef, but individual cardiologists will tell you LH is better for you than commercial. What it sounds like is you're calling BS any beef breed being healthier (or less damaging) than another.
Here's the breakdown for Piedmontese:
The American Heart Association recommends 300 mg of dietary cholesterol a day. One serving (3.5 oz) of cross bred Piedmontese beef amounts to less than 21% of this allowance. Full blood animals, even less.
Commercial Beef 74 mg
Bison 62 mg
Chicken (skinless) 70 mg
Lamb 72 mg
Pork 74 mg
Shrimp 152 mg
Swordfish 39 mg
Turkey (Skinless) 73 mg
Venison 85 mg
Crossbred Piedmontese (F1) 62.0 mg
Crossbred Piedmontese (F2) 38.6 mg
Full Blood Piedmontese 32.1 mg
It looks to me that by having less LDL cholesterol and being higher in Omega 3 than other breeds it might be either healthier, or less damaging depending on which side of the coin you want to look at.
