Beef Versus Chicken: The Take-Home
Chicken and turkey are sometimes lower in fat than beef or pork. But not always. The legs, thighs, and wings are higher in fat than the breast meat, and all poultry is high in fat if you leave the skin on. The amount of fat in ground meat and sausages varies. So, if you’re trying to cut back on fat, be sure to check the label and don’t make any assumptions.
Lean cuts of pork and beef such as pork tenderloin, pork loin roast, sirloin steak, or flank steak are just as healthful as lean cuts of chicken and turkey. In fact, they often contain more of certain nutrients, including heart-healthy monounsaturated fats.
- Just because it’s made of turkey doesn’t automatically make it healthy. If it’s loaded with fat, salt, and/or preservatives—I don’t care if it’s made with wheatgrass and organic sunbeams—it’s not exactly health food.
All right with that said.
I noticed alot of people prefer chicken when they are cutting down and beef when they are bulking. That may be true in many ways, since chicken contains much less fat or calories than the beef. Also, red meat contains creatine which will help blood to flow.
But, the best way is to change up the sources of protein for the body to get used to different kinds. From Fish / Tuna, Chicken, Beef, eggs, whey, soy, and everything else. It's not best to just to stick with one thing for a long time... It gets old... and hard to eat Chicken Salad with Avocado, tomatoes, lettuce, carrots
