Pavo, commonly known as turkey, is a flavorful and versatile protein source widely enjoyed in various cuisines, particularly North American, European, and Latin American dishes. Rich in high-quality lean protein, turkey supports muscle development and keeps you feeling full longer. It is an excellent source of B vitamins, especially B6 and B12, which aid in energy metabolism and support brain health, along with essential minerals like zinc and selenium that boost immunity and antioxidant defenses. Turkey is generally low in fat, but the fat content varies depending on the cut and whether the skin is kept. Skinless breast meat is the leanest option, while darker cuts and skin add more fat and calories. Its mild flavor makes pavo a versatile ingredient for soups, salads, roasts, and tacos. However, processed versions like deli slices or cured turkey may contain higher levels of sodium and preservatives.
