Beef is a complete protein, and a valuable source of key nutrients like iron, zinc, and vitamin B12. These nutrients are essential at every stage of life, and difficult to get from plant-based foods. In fact, gram-for-gram, beef is more nutrient dense and more economical than many other protein foods. Beef has a synergistic benefit (i.e., the Meat Factor). Adding beef to a meal will increase the absorption of iron from other foods like plant-based proteins and vegetables.
