Edible meat
Meat is the most important high-quality protein in the body, so we should pay attention to the selection of kinds and cooking methods when eating meat.

The content of human fat in animal meat is higher than that in fish, and saturated fat is the main one. In order to reduce the intake of human fat, it is suggested to prevent the choice of bone and beef tendon, and tenderloin is better. Cooking methods of meat should also be based on ultra-low temperature cooking methods such as boiling, stewing and rinsing, and methods such as frying, frying and roasting should be prevented.
