Lard is a very healthy product, containing large amounts of vitamins A, D and E, as well as calcium, sodium, magnesium, phosphorus, manganese, zinc, iron, copper and selenium.

The fatty acids contained in lard have a choleretic effect and increase the production of good cholesterol, which helps reduce the risk of developing atherosclerosis.

Lard differs from other fats in its content of arachidonic acid, which is necessary for the normal functioning of the heart and immune system.

However, it is extremely important to consume this healthy product correctly.
