We Love Us Some Lamb
When it comes to red meat, lamb has a lot going for it. Being rich in high-quality protein and many vitamins and minerals, it is an excellent component of a healthy diet. Here’s everything you need to know about lamb.
Benefits of lamb
- It is rich in amino acids and is referred to as a complete protein. It helps to build and maintain muscles when consumed as part of a healthy diet and lifestyle.
- Helps to improve muscle functioning as it contains the amino acid beta-alanine, which our bodies use to produce carnosine, a substance necessary for muscle function.
- It helps prevent anemia. It provides the iron our bodies need to function properly.
- It contains L-Carnosine which helps to protect against cardiovascular diseases.
- While many people judge it on its caloric load, this doesn’t say anything about its relative health merits. it is incredibly nutrient dense and classified as a complete protein.
- In the modern world, most of us are consuming too much omega-6 and not enough omega-3, which is important because omega-3 fatty acids have an anti-inflammatory effect, while omega-6 is pro-inflammatory. Well, thank goodness it is an excellent source of omega-3.
- For those interested in working out and/or sporting performance, it is a great natural source of creatine.
- While many people tend to steer away from lamb due to it being slightly fatty, it is a natural source of good fats that are an essential and healthy part of the human diet.
While there are many ways to enjoy lamb, loin chops are a firm favourite! Not only do you get the best bits, but this cut is great for braaiing and grilling. Loin chops are like mini T-bone steaks cut from the waist of the lamb. They are easy to cook, tender and utterly delicious.
