3. Nutritional value of chicken

1. Compared with pork and beef, chicken has higher protein content and lower fat content. In addition, chicken protein is rich in essential amino acids for the human body, and its content is very similar to the amino acid spectrum in eggs and milk, so it is a source of high-quality protein. The protein content of chicken varies according to the part, with or without skin, and the order from highest to lowest is skinless chicken, breast meat, and thigh meat. Chicken skin contains a large amount of lipids, so chicken with skin should never be regarded as a low-calorie food.

2. Chicken is also a good source of phosphorus, iron, copper and zinc, and is rich in vitamin B12, vitamin B6, vitamin A, vitamin D and vitamin K.

3. Compared with beef and pork, chicken contains more unsaturated fatty acids - linoleic acid and linolenic acid, which can reduce the level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol which is harmful to health.
