Co mpared ounce to ounce beef has nine times more B-12, four times as much zinc and two and half times as much iron as chicken. The iron in beef is more biologically digestible then iron from plants and eggs. Our beef is similar to the meat we evolved eating and provides a good source of nutritionally complete protein, containing all eight amino acids in the ideal proportions for human nutrition. These individuals should eat fourteen ounces of lean beef a day or its equivalent to combat the breakdown of protein in their muscles. It's the meat you and baby want.
Women require twice as much protein for peak health during pregnancy and nursing.
