So I just started the raw paleo last week. The only meat without gmo, hormones, etc. I could find was chicken so that's what I started with. Sadly, all other meats are of conventional animal farming and I feel kind of limited. I live in Croatia and grassfed doesn't seem to even be a thing here, people just aren't thinking about it. Should I avoid all beef since it isn't grassfed?I highly doubt that it is impossible to get "grass-fed" where you live. I have seen in a lot of countries that good quality meat is available, you just need to know where to look. You are better off looking on the internet (in your native language), going to farmers' markets than regular supermarkets most of the time, although it still worth checking those as well. Remember that grass-fed is most likely not going exist as a term in your own language as it would in English, try and find farmers that claim their animals were free range/pasture raised, fed only/mostly grass/hay and very little grains/soy etc... With a little luck, you can probably find a term that describes something similar to grass-fed in your language.

Grass-fed is not the most important. You wanna stick to nutrient-rich red meat. You can remove the fat if you are concerned about fat-soluble toxins. If you are wise, you will understand this important free info.

We can agree to disagree. Conventional farmed meat, even "nutrient dense" sources, gave me acidosis. Nutrient dense grassfed meat changed my health. The fat is also as much, if not more, important than the muscle meat. Organs too which I wouldn't touch from a conventional source.
If you are wise and did your research you will know why.
