Tallow is a traditional fat, meaning it has been used around the world for centuries in both cooking and skin care. And while it has lost popularity in the past few decades due to the rise of cheep seed oils, it has recently been making a comeback, and for good reason! Grass-fed animal fats, like beef tallow, have been shown to have high anti-inflammatory and nutrient properties, making it a great substitute for the modern, high-inflammatory seed oils.
