HEALTH & BENEFITS

While Thuringer sausages are not particularly healthy, they can be a good source of protein. Venison is lean meat, which means it has less fat and more protein than other meats. It can also have high levels of iron, vitamin B12, and zinc. However, the high amount of salt in the recipe may be an issue for people with high blood pressure.
