Why is duck good for you?

We now know that duck meat is good for you because, unlike most animal fats, it has a unique fatty acid composition. It has low levels of saturated fatty acids, a high proportion of unsaturated fatty acids and a high oleic acid content. Unsaturated fatty acids are the best part of a balanced diet. They tend to protect against cardiovascular disease. They are sources of omega-3 and omega-6, essential to our metabolism.
Aspart of a balanced diet, of course😉you can add duck hearts to your salad, cooked for a few minutes in a hot pan. We also recommend minced duck, which you can accompany with a pan-fried seasonal vegetable.

Duck, a meat with many nutritional benefits

A 100g portion of roasted or baked duck meat provides at least 2.7mg of iron. This helps cover the recommended daily allowance of iron for men (1mg), women (2mg) and children.
