I was born a Vegetarian. No meat at all! Long story short, it suffices to say I was converted! How could something taste
soooooooooo good!? You know you cannot equate nyama with much else and since my
friend introduced me to the art of eating Kenchic Fries with a homemade Beef Stir
Fry, I have made it my mission to find many more delicious methods of cooking,
frying or roasting meat!
Everyone is now
going Vegan / Vegetarian / Lacto –
Vegetarian / Green…green food, green fuel, green something-or-the-other….Well,
I am going Carnivore! Meat is good for you, don’t listen to them green folks! Of
course too much of anything is bad for you, so I must mention here that even
meat, must be done in moderation. I’m pretty sure if you inhaled too much air
something may pop!
Meat contains all the essential amino acids that our bodies require for a healthy living. It is thus the most essential source of protein that we can find. The protein in meat has a number of benefits;
·
Protein assists
in the production of antibodies that fight infections thus has a hand in
strengthening your immune system.
·
Protein
improves your general well being as well as playing a big role in repair and building
of body tissues.
·
Iron- that
helps in forming haemoglobin that transports oxygen to different parts of your
body
·
Zinc-
that helps in tissue formation and metabolism
·
Selenium-
breaks down the fat and chemicals in the body.
·
Vitamins
are also a big part of the one’s diet, and Vitamin A, B and D are commonly
found in meat as well. Not only do these vitamins promote good vision, stronger
teeth and bones but it also support the central nervous system thus promoting
mental health as well.
·
Another
big benefit of eating meat is the maintenance of your skin’s health- who knew!
These benefits are not conclusive,
just a small show of why you really need some meat in your diet. In the blogs
to come we can share roasting recipes…
