About Slice of ham

Slice of ham is a popular protein choice made from pork leg or shoulder, typically cured, smoked, or cooked. Originating from European cuisine, ham has become a versatile ingredient worldwide, enjoyed in sandwiches, salads, or as a standalone dish. Nutritionally, ham is rich in protein and essential nutrients such as iron, zinc, and B vitamins, which support muscle repair and energy metabolism. However, it can also be high in sodium and saturated fat, depending on preparation methods and additives used during processing. Opting for lower-sodium versions or lean cuts can make it a healthier choice. Ham is best consumed in moderation, particularly for those with dietary concerns related to salt intake. Whether paired with vegetables or grains, sliced ham can fit into a balanced diet while contributing delicious flavor and texture to meals.
