All about veal > Health and nutrition

Include veal as part of a balanced, varied and tasty diet. It's a relatively lean meat and what's more, it provides a high percentage of unsaturated fatty acids, some of which must be obtained from our food since they cannot be synthesized by the body. And the protein from veal, like all animal protein, is an excellent source of amino acids necessary for cell-building. Veal is also a good source of zinc, a mineral essential to our body's development. And finally, we shouldn't overlook veal's contribution of vitamins B12 and PP.
