Eat Organic, Eat Healthy!!

Elevation Burger feeds the appetite for organic meat with its tasty spread

Eating organic fruits, vegetables, and other produce is the order of the day – for it is healthier, tastes better, and it does not possess any nasty toxins or chemicals. Similarly, the organic meat offers a host of benefits when it comes to healthy content.

Among the various advantages of organic meat is that they contain no pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, chemical or synthetic fertilizers, nitrates or preservatives. Similarly, organically raised animals are not fed antibiotics, artificial hormones, or bovine human growth hormone.

Moreover, the organically-raised animals do not eat genetically modified foods, and cannot have their genes modified. Studies show that grass-fed beef contains more nutritional value, including higher levels of conjugated linoleic acid and Omega-3 fatty acids, which reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer.

Organic farms also take care of animals in a humane and ethical manner. The grass-fed animals often consume a wider range of nutrients than conventionally raised animals. When the animals are raised in such an environment, will not their meat be healthy? Organic meat, like organic vegetables, will better serve your body in the long run.

Riding on this wave, Elevation Burger – the rapidly-growing fast casual burger chain has tapped into a surging trend and consumer desire for organic foods, and in particular, the currently red-hot demand for grass-fed beef.

The renowned US-based fast casual brand, which has revolutionized the fast food industry across the GCC, serves burgers made from 100% USDA certified organic beef and fries are fresh hand-cut and cooked in 100% heart-healthy olive oil. Not only do the burgers taste great but, even food is better with less fat and fewer calories than other burger chains.

No wonder that the chain, which was launched just outside of Washington D.C. in 2005, now has over three-dozen locations in 10 states, including Texas and New York, and has branches in the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman and Saudi Arabia.

“All meat contains fat. Growth hormones and antibiotics fed to cows and chickens end up in their fat. Eating organic meat and poultry decreases your risk of being exposed to residues of pesticides and synthetic chemicals. Such chemicals can contribute to a number of health problems, including excess weight gain,” said Khaled Al Dhubaib, CEO of Tabco Emirates LLC, Franchisee of Elevation Burger UAE.

He added: “The Elevation Burger beefs are 100% USDA certified organic, grass-fed, free range and ground daily in each restaurant. This beef is definitely healthier for individuals, cows and the environment. But we do not stop at beef: The fries are cooked only in 100% heart-healthy olive oil, the cheeseburgers topped with unprocessed six months old aged cheddar cheese, the organic beef bacon, and two kinds of Veggies are on offer – normal and organic, besides organic cheesecake powder. The stores themselves feature energy-efficient lights and appliances and are built from sustainable materials such as bamboo. Can you become more organic than this?”

The success of Elevation Burger followed a huge demand for its unique products, which are the only one-of-its-kind organic burgers available across the Middle East. The company believes in a philosophy that fast food does not have to mean junk food. Elevation Burger offers parents the opportunity to give their kids delicious food they will love and can feel good about – it's the same quality of food that is prepared at home.
