Why Meat

I was reading NZ Beef and Lambs website and it is so educational around the questions of - Why eat meat?  I've choosen a few facts to share with you.

As part of a healthy balanced diet, the World Cancer Research Fund and the Ministry of Health recommend eating up to 350-500g of cooked red meat per week, that’s 3-4 meals a week.

Red meat is a rich and easily absorbed source of protein, iron, zinc & vitamin B12, essential for all, especially children, adolescents, pregnant women, athletes & older adults.

Beef and lamb provide more than protein and iron, with a unique nutrition package including B vitamins, zinc, selenium, vitamin D, monounsaturated fat and all essential amino acids.
