• Beef is an important source of B vitamins, zinc and iron.

Vitamin B12 is needed for the normal functioning of our body's cells and nervous system. Only foods from animal sources contain B12 naturally.

Zinc is needed for immune system functioning and wound healing. It is essential for fetal, infant and child growth and cognition. According to the Continuing Survey of Food Intake by Individuals (1994-96), 73% of Americans are not meeting their need for dietary zinc. Beef is one of the most readily available sources for zinc. Beef supplies 57.8% of the zinc in the American diet.

Iron is an essential mineral the body needs to produce energy. Yet, more than 40% of Americans suffer from iron deficiency. Many people do not know that there are two types of iron, heme iron and non-heme iron. Protein foods from beef, poultry and fish contain heme iron. Non-heme iron is found mainly in plant foods such as grains, fruits and vegetables. The body more readily absorbs heme iron than non-heme iron. Foods that contain heme iron help increase the amount of iron the body absorbs from other foods.
