HEALTH & BENEFITS

Beef is a great source of protein, iron, and zinc. Protein is essential for building and repairing tissues, while iron is important for red blood cell production. Zinc helps support a healthy immune system.
While beef can be high in saturated fat and calories, trimming the fat before cooking and enjoying it in moderation can be part of a healthy diet.
