Summary: <a href="http://www.beinghealthy.tv/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/2813931819_2c07d24ca3_m.jpg"></a><br><br> Photo by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/VirtualErn/2813931819/">VirtualErn</a> via Flickr<br> I know it seems like everywhere you go, people are telling you the healthiest thing you can do is to go vegetarian. I also know that many of you enjoy a nice, juicy steak or hamburger once in a while and don’t plan to give it up anytime soon. Others are vegetarians or vegans who often enjoy a tasty meatless substitute, such as meatless chicken, meatless beef or meatless turkey. However, whether you choose to eat meat or meat substitutes, not all options are created equal. Just because it doesn’t have meat in it, doesn’t mean that it is healthy.<br> In this show, I am going to delve into the world of beef, for you meat lovers, and the meatless meat world, for you veggie lovers. I am going to discuss what is healthy and what is not so healthy to consume.<br> <br> Some references I used while researching this show are The New Wellness Encyclopedia, <a href="http://lowfatcooking.about.com/od/quicktips/qt/trimfat.htm">about.com</a> and <a href="http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/food-and-nutrition/AN00924">Mayo Clinic</a>.<br> If you like the show, please head on over to <a title="iTunes" href="http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=285124681">iTunes</a> and give me a nice review.  It’s a great way to give me some good exposure and can help me get more listeners.  Thanks for listening, everyone!<br>
