Why eat chicken?

Low in fat but high in protein, chicken helps control weight and muscle development while preventing bone loss. Rich in tryptophan (an amino acid), it improves the mood, which has favorable consequences on the level of stress and quality of sleep.

This bird is also good for the heart, by controlling the level of another amino acid (homocysteine) associated with cardiovascular diseases. High in phosphorus, eating chicken has positive effects on teeth, bones, kidneys, liver and central nervous system.

With vitamin B6, it stimulates the metabolism. Containing retinol, a- and ß-carotenes, and lycopene, it contributes to healthy eyes.
