About Lean turkey

Lean turkey is a nutritious and versatile protein source, widely used in cuisines across the globe. Originating from North America, turkey has been a staple in traditional meals, particularly around holidays like Thanksgiving. With minimal fat, lean turkey is rich in high-quality protein, essential for muscle building and repair. It’s also packed with vitamins and minerals such as B vitamins, selenium, and phosphorus, which support metabolism, immunity, and bone health. Unlike fattier cuts of meat, lean turkey is lower in saturated fat, making it a heart-friendly choice when prepared without excess oil or added sugar. Common in dishes like turkey burgers, stir-fries, salads, and wraps, it offers a healthy alternative to red meats. While lean turkey is an excellent option, processed forms like deli meat or turkey sausage can carry high sodium levels, so moderation is recommended for balanced nutrition.
