Not only are these products a source of protein, but also vitamins and minerals such as iron.
Meat, fish or eggs are a component of the main dish for lunch or dinner, but should be used in smaller quantities than the accompaniment (starches / vegetables). Usually 100g of meat or 2 eggs are a sufficient portion for an adult.
Whatever the type of meat, lean meat are always preferred. For example, for a piece of beef, choose a steak or sirloin steak rather than an entrecote which is oilier. Poultry skin is also very rich in fat.
Fish should be consumed at least twice a week, preferring fatty fish such as salmon, which provides some essential fatty acids (Omega 3) that would have a preventive effect vis-Ã -vis cardiovascular diseases.
Eggs are a good source of replacement for meat proteins. You can consume it once a week since it also contains cholesterol.
