Why Might Beef Fat Actually PROTECT Your Liver?

A study on rats revealed that different types of fats affect liver damage when combined with alcohol. Rats fed lard (pig fat) and alcohol experienced minimal liver damage, while those given beef tallow (beef fat) had virtually no liver damage, suggesting beef tallow might protect the liver. On the other hand, rats fed corn oil and alcohol suffered the most liver damage. This content also explores the rising popularity of beef tallow as a cooking fat, highlighting its health benefits, high smoke point, rich nutrient profile, and sustainability compared to other fats like butter and lard.
