A nutritionist explained how much meat you can eat per week without harming your heart, and named the healthiest varieties.
Nutritionist Elena Sukhanova included rabbit, turkey and lamb in this list.
However, the expert pointed out that it is impossible to build a diet focusing on meat. The menu should include vegetables, fruits, cereals, reports Sport Express .
The specialist reported that rabbit meat is valued for its high content of proteins, iron, zinc, phosphorus and B vitamins. The advantage of the product over pork and beef is that it contains less fat and cholesterol.
The expert noted that turkey is healthier than chicken because it has less fat but more protein. The product is rich in selenium, which is involved in building strong immunity.
Lamb contains creatine, which increases endurance and is useful for those who want to increase muscle mass.
The nutritionist referred to the opinion of cardiologists, who believe that the safe amount of meat is 300-350 g per week.
