Long story short, I'm trying to follow a fairly Peat-ish diet, but the egg, meat, and dairy industry (for lack of a better term) suffers from major malfunctions.
Egg Production in Israel
Consumer Report: Meat
I am having trouble finding consumer reports regarding dairy, but needless to say that there is only one organic milk producer (Harduf) and the cows are fed on a steady diet of (probably)GMO-based soy and grain.
From the article, the sources of eggs are suspect, thus their diet is probably soy and grain once more.
Based off this, it seems like my only safe and inexpensive sources of protein is frozen beef and hydrolyzed collagen that I can order online. I can find shrimp, crab, and mussels from non-kosher markets, but they are greatly more expensive than the states.
I can find beef liver from the flea market, but can I utilize that everyday to meet my cholesterol and micro-nutrient requirements over eggs? Do eggs have anything beneficial over liver?
(I know my simplest solution would be to leave Israel, but unfortunately, I am here for 2 more years while I finish my degree).
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
