Grass-Fed Butter and Cream

When it comes to weight loss, butter and cream can be either your best friends or your worst enemies.  Because butter and cream are fats, they're a storehouse for pesticides and antibiotics if they're made from commercially farmed, grain-fed animals.  When these products are made from grass-fed and organically raised animals, however, they are an excellent source of fat-burning conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).  So if you can find butter and cream made from grass-fed, organically raised cows, enjoy them.  But stay away from all non- organic butter and cream.
