According to experts, turkey meat is considered one of the healthiest types of white meat due to its high protein content and low fat ratio.
Medianews.az reports that according to studies, 100 grams of turkey meat contains approximately 29 grams of protein.
In chicken meat, this figure is 27 grams. It is especially noted that a high protein content is important for reducing muscle loss in elderly people.
Turkey meat also helps regulate cholesterol and protect bone health due to its low saturated fat content. It is considered suitable for people with sensitive digestive systems because it is easily digestible.
Experts state that turkey meat is also beneficial for weight control as it creates a long-lasting feeling of fullness. However, it can become dry quickly if not cooked properly.
To keep the meat tender and juicy, it is recommended to cook it for a short time at high heat. In dishes made from minced meat, adding a little cold water yields better results.
