The turkey is a large bird native to North America. It’s hunted in the wild, as well as raised on farms.

Its meat is highly nutritious and a popular protein source consumed around the world.

This article tells you all you need to know about turkey, including its nutrition, calories, and how to add it into your diet.

Healthy source of protein

Turkey is a protein-rich food.

Protein is important for muscle growth and maintenance. It gives structure to cells and helps transport nutrients around your body .

Additionally, a high-protein diet may even support weight loss by promoting feelings of fullness.

Just 2 thick slices (84 grams) of turkey pack 24 grams of protein — an impressive 48% of the DV.

What’s more, turkey may be a healthier alternative to red meat, as some observational studies link red meat to an increased risk of colon cancer and heart disease.

However, other studies claim that processed meat — not red meat itself — has a negative effect on health.

Loaded with B vitamins

Turkey meat is a particularly rich source of B vitamins, including B3 (niacin), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin).

Two thick slices (84 grams) of turkey pack 61% of the DV for vitamin B3, 49% for vitamin B6, and 29% for vitamin B12.

These B vitamins have many benefits:

  • Vitamin B3 (niacin). This vitamin is important for efficient energy production and cell communication
  • Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine). This vitamin supports amino acid formation and helps produce neurotransmitters.
  • Vitamin B12. B12 is vital for DNA production and the formation of red blood cells.

Furthermore, turkey is a good source of folate and vitamins B1 (thiamine) and B2 (riboflavin).
