Organic beef is always raised without those ingredients; however, the animals might eat grain, in addition, which would diminish the nutritive benefit described above.

In a special report available online at http://www.ConsumerReports.org/health, Consumer Reports answers five questions about winter depression. CR has guidance for people concerned about the winter blues and best treatments. How can people tell if they're suffering from winter depression? CR notes that some symptoms are similar to those associated with other types of depression, such as sadness, fatigue, excessive sleepiness, social withdrawal, and trouble concentrating.
