Making it Lean
Eating lean animal source foods can provide a variety of micronutrients that are difficult to obtain in adequate quantities from plant source foods alone. These include protein, B vitamins, iron, zinc and magnesium. Animal sources of protein are rich in leucine; the amino acid that independently stimulates muscle protein synthesis. Oily fish such as salmon and mackerel are rich in omega-3 fatty acids which have undeniable health benefits.
