The Beef Production Story

Beef is Naturally Nutrient-Rich and Leaner Than Ever Before

Not only is beef delicious and satisfying, but it is also a nutritional powerhouse.
Just one 3-ounce serving of beef is an "excellent" source of five essential nutrients; protein, zinc, vitamin B12, selenium and phosphorous. And it's a "good" source of niacin, vitamin B6, iron and riboflavin.
There are now 29 cuts of lean beef1 to fit any lifestyle. In fact twenty of the 29 lean beef cuts have, on average, only one more gram of saturated fat than a comparable three-ounce serving of skinless, boneless chicken breast.
More than 60% of all whole muscle cuts sold at retail and 10 of the top 12 most popular retail cuts are "lean."2
1.  All 29 cuts meet the government guidelines for "lean" -- less than 10 grams of total fat, 4.5 grams or less of saturated fat and less than 95 milligrams of cholesterol per serving.
2.  FreshLook Marketing Group, 52 weeks ending September 30, 2006.
