Teresa Heinz Kerry goes grass-fed

Teresa Heinz Kerry, wife of Senator John Kerry, advocates healthy food for the nation and for her own family, according to an interview in The New York Times. Well educated and outspoken, she is a proponent of pasture-based ranching—so much so that she has switched her own small herd of cattle from grain to grass.

In her comments to Times columnist Marian Burros, she said, "I used to have 80 head of cattle. I used to feed them a little grain, but now they are all grass fed with alfalfa because of studies that show that animals that feed on grass have high levels of CLAs," conjugated linoleic acids or nutrients that are believed by some New Zealand scientists to reduce heart attacks and cholesterol levels."

Go Teresa!
