Does Kosher Mean Safer?

Dr. Maya Shetreat-Klein is a pediatric neurologist and expert in some of the direct healthy benefits of pasture raised meat. In 2008, she started Mitzvah Meat and Mindful Meat, a co-op bringing local, grass-fed, humanely raised and slaughtered meat and chicken to both kosher and non-kosher communities. She explains how kosher slaughter varies from non-kosher slaughter and how it may lessen the risk of food-borne illness.
