Nowadays many Ukrainians who had switched over to healthy nutrition have appreciated high nutrition value of turkey meat and included it in their daily diet because other sorts of meat are inferior to it in a lot of wholesome qualities.
Caloric value
Калорийность 100 г запечённого мяса индейки (из которых 29,1 г белка, жиров 3,8 г и углеводов 0,0 г) составляет 159 кКал или 664 кДж.
Это 6.9% от средней суточной нормы.
Vitamins
Запечённое мясо индейки содержит жирорастворимые витамины (A, D, D3 и E), водорастворимые витамины (B1, B2, B3 (PP), B4, B5, B6, B9 и B12).
Minerals
Индейка занимает лидирующие место среди домашней птицы по количеству макро и микроэлементов в мясе. Так, с расчета на 100 г мяса, можно получить половину суточной нормы селена, который необходим для синтеза гормонов щитовидной железы.
Индейка содержит фосфора почти как рыба, с 100 г можно получить треть суточной потребности нашего организма.
Если сравнить мясо индейки с говядиной, то железа в первой будет больше, а его усваиваемость на ряду с мясом другой птицы в разы выше.
Укреплению иммунитета способствует наличие цинка в мясе этой птицы (пятая часть необходимой нормы).
Также данное мясо будет полезно людям, страдающим гипертонией. Натрий, содержащийся в мясе индейки, способствует нормализации обмена веществ. Его количество предает мясу слегка соленый вкус, что позволяет уменьшить количество соли при приготовлении блюда.
Amino acids
100 g of the product contain a third of the daily norm of such substances:
- trisnin (responsible for producing collagen and strengthening the muscle tissue),
- isoleucine (allows the synthesis of hemoglobin, regulates the blood sugar level),
- leucine (one of the basic amino acids which influences the building of body cells),
- methionine (contributes to recovering of liver and kidney tissue and abstersion of the body from toxins),
- valine (influences mental condition and functioning of the liver),
- histidine (responsible for producing red blood cells and general strengthening of the immunity).
Containing the amino acid tryptophane allows the production of serotonin and melanin which are responsible for good mood and suppress negative emotions.
It’s worth mentioning that one portion of wholesome turkey can provide the human body with the daily amount of omega-3 fatty acids. These acids improve the functioning of the brain and stimulate the functioning of heart.
