      This article is fantastic in banishing my concerns about meat in my diet. I always think that meat is a source of great fat but it tastes great. This article acts kind of like a cook book and tells you how should be eating your meat so that it's healthy for you and won't kill you! Also preparing your own meals is a good way to learn some cooking skills, save some money from going to McDonalds, and it's healthy!

In fact, infants who do not get enough omega-3 fatty acids from their mothers during pregnancy are at risk for developing vision and nerve problems.
