Why FaBene Uses Grass-Fed Beef in Its Gluten-Free Lasagna
Share
Why these two ingredient choices matter to FaBene
FaBene's Organic Gluten-Free Beef Lasagna combines two clearly defined product attributes: gluten-free pasta and 100% grass-fed, grass-finished beef. We choose them for different reasons, and neither should be presented as a medical treatment.
Why we offer a gluten-free lasagna
People avoid gluten for different reasons. For someone with celiac disease, gluten triggers an autoimmune reaction and must be avoided. Other customers may have a diagnosed wheat allergy, non-celiac gluten sensitivity or a personal dietary preference.
Our gluten-free lasagna is made with egg-free gluten-free pasta crafted in Italy. FaBene also produces wheat-based products, so customers with celiac disease, severe wheat allergy or high sensitivity should review the package and contact us if they need details about ingredients or production practices.
Gluten-free does not automatically mean healthier for every person. It is a specific product attribute that helps customers choose according to their own needs.
Why we choose grass-fed and grass-finished beef
The beef used in this lasagna comes from cattle raised on grass and forage rather than grain finishing. USDA guidance treats “grass-fed” as a production claim that must be supported by documentation. Read the USDA guidance on animal-raising claims.
Studies comparing grass-fed and grain-fed beef have found differences in total fat and fatty-acid composition, although the size of those differences varies with breed, geography, forage and production system. A published review found that grass-fed beef generally contained more long-chain omega-3 fatty acids and a lower omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, while also noting meaningful variation between studies. Review the research indexed by PubMed.
These compositional differences do not mean that grass-fed beef prevents or treats inflammation, cardiovascular disease or any other condition. For FaBene, grass-fed beef is a sourcing and quality choice that also contributes to the flavor and identity of the recipe.
