The Science
This food is excellent for muscle building due to its high protein content (22g per 100g, +44% DV), which provides essential amino acids for muscle protein synthesis. It also supplies zinc (+47% DV) and selenium (+32% DV), which support testosterone production and recovery, while iron (+14% DV) aids oxygen transport to muscles. The low fat content (3%) makes it a lean protein source, ideal for muscle gain without excess calories from fat.
Recommendation
Include 100-200g of this lean ground beef in a post-workout meal or as part of a daily protein-rich diet to support muscle repair and growth.
