Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Turkey with Skin
Metabolic Effect: Turkey meat, thanks to its high protein content, helps you stay full for a long time and supports muscle development. Consuming it with the skin causes more calorie and fat intake, which raises your energy levels.
Consumption Suggestion: Consuming it without the skin helps you protect your heart health by providing less fat intake. You can increase your vitamin and mineral intake by consuming it with vegetables.
Things to Consider: Turkey meat with skin may contain high saturated fat, so portion control is important, especially for those who want to lose weight. A portion (medium) of turkey meat covers a significant portion of your daily protein needs.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn a medium-sized portion of turkey meat with 129 calories, you need to walk at a light pace for about 25 minutes. This also helps improve your overall health.
