Animal based foods, such as meat and dairy, are the main dietary sources of vitamin B-12, a vitamin human body needs to produce new red blood cells.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) list red meat as good source of heme iron, where it is more bioavailable, which means that the body can use it more easily.

Red meat is also high in protein, which is necessary for building muscle, bone, other tissues, and enzymes.

Recent studies conclude a decreased risk of heart disease with an increased consumption of CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), a nutrient abundant in grass-fed beef.
