Feel Good About Loving Beef

Isn’t it great that a food you crave can be so good for you too?

Beef is easy to love because it tastes so great, but it’s also a naturally nutrient-rich source of nine essential nutrients. The protein in beef helps strengthen and sustain your body. Evidence shows that protein plays an important role in maintaining healthy weight, building muscle and fueling physical activity.

And when you’ve got all that going for you, you and your loved ones are one big step closer to a healthier lifestyle and at lower risk for disease.

You should know that there are 29 cuts of beef that meet government guidelines for lean. Each one contains less than 10 grams of total fat, 4.5 grams or less of saturated fat, and less than 95 milligrams of cholesterol per 3.5 oz. serving.

So “go lean with protein” while following the U.S. Dietary Guidelines.
