Dried meat: 5 reasons to opt for quality
I am often in search of new quality products and recently I came across an simply exceptional dried beef meat.
The convenience of dried meat is also an important factor. When I have little time to eat at noon, I enjoy eating 100 grams of dried meat with, for example, a handful of organic almonds and an apple or 150 grams of fresh pineapple.
Often, dried meat is too fatty, contains added sugar, and is much too salty. In addition, it often contains several preservatives.
The taste and quality of this organic meat from a butcher in Grisons convinced me to propose a post about the nutritional value of beef, when it is prepared according to the rules of the art.
I recently discovered organic dried meat.Andy Mark from Schiers - Lunden (GR). This is the Lamborghini of dried meat. I would also like to acknowledge his support and special commitment in the world of sports.
# 1 Good digestibility of proteins
Please be aware thatThe digestive use of meat proteins is generally very good. According to the calculation of the PD-CAAS (Protein digestibility corrected amino acid scoreMost of the proteins in beef do not present any limiting amino acids. Obviously, overly fatty beef will have a negative impact on digestion.
For athletes who train at noon, this can be a good snack one hour before training.
# 2 An ally for the activation of dopamine and noradrenaline
Rather than systematically focusing on muscle glycogen, which is rarely deficient before training, I prefer to emphasize the nervous system of the athlete and particularly on the activation of dopamine and of the norepinephrine. So, dried beef will be a valuable help.
# 3 An important source of protein
A piece of 100g of beef brings (depending on its cut) between 25g and 34g of protein. Protein means in Greek "who holds the first place", which tells you its importance. There are 22 amino acids (proteins), 9 of which are considered essential for maintaining our health. However, these essential amino acids only come from animal proteins.
# 4 A valuable contribution of minerals, trace elements and vitamins
Moreover, and it is often forgotten, beef is an important source. of minerals, trace elements, vitamins. All these micronutrients present in beef are particularly well absorbed by our body.
Beef is also a good source of zinc and of selenium, great antioxidants, and ofcopper which is a trace element with anti-infectious and anti-inflammatory properties.
She is rich in vitamins B3, , B6, , B9 and B12, of the vitamins who play important roles in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and lipids, as well as in the renewal of our cells and who have a fundamental impact on our nervous system.
# 5 An interesting source of iron
Dried beef contains iron.
This one plays an essential role in the oxygen transport in the blood and in the formation of red blood cells. Iron also plays a role in the development of new cells, ofhormones and of neurotransmitters. Also note that the iron contained in animal-based foods is better absorbed by our body than the iron from plants.
