HEALTH & BENEFITS

Lamb is a good source of high-quality protein, vitamin B12, and iron. Vitamin B12 is essential for red blood cell formation and helps to keep your nerves and brain functioning properly. Iron is crucial for healthy blood flow and the transport of oxygen throughout the body. The addition of fresh mint also provides antioxidants and may aid in digestion. However, the high fat content may not be best for everyone, so enjoy in moderation.
