Animal Based Diet. What Meat to Eat.

• Brisket — high collagen, slow-cooked; protein, zinc, iron, gelatin for joints and gut lining
• Chops (rib/loin) — well-marbled muscle; protein, fat, B12, zinc, creatine; good satiety
• Ground beef (80/20) — versatile muscle and fat blend; complete protein, B12, iron; daily staple

• Neck — collagen-dense, braise only; glycine, gelatin, zinc, B12; gut lining and joints
• Leg — leaner muscle; high protein, B12, zinc, selenium, phosphorus
• Ribs — fatty muscle with connective tissue; B12, zinc, CLA, selenium; energy and satiety

• Neck — fatty, collagen-rich; strong B-vitamin profile (B1, B3, B6, B12), zinc, selenium; slow cook
• Chops — leaner muscle; B vitamins, notably high vitamin D, good protein; quick cook

• Wings (skin-on) — fat and muscle; B3, B6, selenium; glycine from skin balances muscle meat
• Legs (skin-on) — dark muscle meat; higher iron, zinc and B12 than breast; selenium, B6

• Beef liver — the most nutrient-dense food available; vitamin A, B12, copper, folate, choline, K2
• Lamb liver — same profile as beef liver, milder flavour; B12, copper, folate, iron, riboflavin
• Lamb heart — best whole-food source of CoQ10; B vitamins, iron, zinc, selenium; cellular energy
• Lamb kidneys — concentrated selenium and riboflavin; B12, iron, folate; thyroid and antioxidant support

Organs are nutrient-dense — avoid over consumption.
