What makes Omega Balance Natural Beef different?
This is our most frequently asked question, and the answer is surprisingly simple. The difference is in what we feed it.
The answer may be simple, but the details under the hood are more complex.
Omega Balance Natural Meats® is a result of 20 years of research and experimentation, using fermentation and natural diets to raise healthy animals with healthy meat. Our objective is to work with nature to help our farmers and ranchers produce food that is naturally healthy, with no hormones, no antibiotics, and no grain! Omega Balance Natural Beef® and Omega Balance Natural Bison® are produced with only natural forage, grass-fed, carefully fermented to release and create superior nutrition, greater health, and better meat.

Grain-free, with nothing but fermented natural grasses and forages, our Omega Balance Natural Meats® are even better than grass fed. Superior nutrition helps the animals grow faster, producing high-quality marbling in very young animals for mild, juicy, and tender beef and bison. No antibiotics, no hormones, no vaccines, no grain...Ever!
It all began in 2006 with a homeless man!
Rod Stewart, a resident of Johnston, SC, was eating dinner at a local diner when a local homeless man came by his table and left a product flier. The question sparked by that flier has now become the best cattle feeding program, for producers and consumers, through more than 20 years of extensive research and development.
During the early years, additional research was ongoing, experimenting with differing methods of fermentation with varying levels of success. Mr. Hamilton was able to adapt the process and fermentation products to work into normal agricultural processes and practices, allowing for production scaling and success.
Ongoing experiments and real-world experience continued for several years with ranchers and farmers across the country, but the data and record keeping was spotty and insufficient to provide the level of information we were seeking.
Essential Fatty Acids
In 2019, we sent samples of the finished meat from the first group of steers to the food science laboratory at Utah State University to test the essential fatty acid composition. The results came back with an Omega 6:3 ratio of 1:1.
