Advantages Of Keeping And Consuming AllNatural Pastured Pork

By Donna Olson


Pigs are commonly referred to dirty and unhealthy animals. However, the assumption applies to pigs that are kept in secluded areas and never get a chance to roam for foods or get a chance to exercise and enjoy the sunlight. It is difficult to maintain the health of animals that are living under a roof considering that they have to be fed and cleaned on a daily basis. As such, the employees handling them forget or ignore to attend them leaving them in a helpless condition. Here are reasons why you should keep and eat allnatural pastured pork in your home.

Pork obtained from concentrated animal feeding operation is significantly different from the ones gotten from free range pigs. The ethical issues that are experienced in the factory farms are reasons enough for you to stop their product intake. This article focuses on potential benefits that could be achieved by eating pork that has been obtained from free-range or pastured pigs.

The first advantage that comes from eating pork is the enriched fat which is classified as healthy and cholesterol free. The nutrients from pig fat are equivalent to fats accessed from olive and avocados. As such, pork becomes preferable than beef for people who care about their hearts. Additionally, pork provides other essential minerals and vitamins for human bodies.

When farming pigs for commercial reasons, farmers use every available mechanism to hasten the growth of the pigs to gain profits. For this reason, they start using antibiotics that make them grow faster forgetting that people who eat products from the animals might get affected by the drugs. Therefore, embark on eating pork from free-range animals that have trivial chances of being injected with antibiotics.

Raising pigs on a farm at a free range is an economic advantage to the farmer. Waste disposal problem is not a problem to them because the animals graze and deposit their droppings on random at the farm hence improving its fertility. Moreover, there are no costs incurred in employing people to clean and collect the droppings from factory raised pigs. The droppings help to enrich the soil and consequently supporting viable farming.

Pigs are locked up in a single room in factory farms where they can hardly get an opportunity to exercise or get exposure to the sun. As such, they are prevented from having a natural diet, and provision of clean, fresh air. Such conditions predispose them to diseases and dirty environment that makes the thought of eating them look hilarious.

Maintaining indigenous breeds is a responsibility for everyone. The haste and greed for money have led to the abandonment of this breeds which have their advantages too. For instance, they hardly get sick, rarely succumb to droughts, and give delicious products than other animals. As such, you should keep the heritage breed.

The decision to keep free-range pigs will depend on the piece of land that a farmer has. Although some people may not be privileged enough to own big lands, they can still keep a few pigs that can feed on the available land. Remember that products derived from free-range animals remain to be the sweetest and healthiest.
