When it comes to proteins, meats are tops. By now, we are all aware that the manner in which we prepare our meats makes a tremendous difference in the nutritional value, so be sure to drag out the grill, or fire up the oven when preparing your 3-ounce serving of meat. Your best low in fat sources of protein include: - FISH - baked, grilled or poached. Best sources include Atlantic Cod, Flounder, Grouper, Haddock, Monkfish, Mullet, Atlantic Ocean Perch, Orange Roughy, Northern Pike, Chum Canned Salmon, Sole, Rainbow Trout, Light Tuna canned in water, Abalone, and steamed Shrimp - BEEF - use lean cuts of beef with all traces of fat removed. Best sources of protein include Bottom Round Roast (a 3-ounce serving supplies nearly half the daily protein requirement), Eye Round Roast (again, 3 ounces - half the daily requirement), Pot Roast (3 ounces, half the daily requirement), Rib Eye Steak, T-Bone Steak, Tip Round Steak, and Top Round Steak. - CHICKEN - WILD GAME - best sources include bear, bison, wild boar, caribou, deer, elk, moose, pheasant, squab, lamb foreshank, lamb sirloin As a note, the Health World has advised for years that red meat be consumed on a very limited basis in an effort to combat heart disease. |
