America’s fast paced and demanding lifestyle requires a high quality diet. Black Canyon^® Angus Beef can enhance your diet by providing significant amounts of critical nutrients.

While a balanced diet that delivers proper levels of all nutrients is critical, several key nutrients are particularly important for good health, cognitive function, and necessary energy levels. Beef is an excellent source of several key nutrients due to its tremendous nutrient dense profile. For all age groups, Black Canyon Beef makes a substantial contribution to the recommend daily nutrient intake. A three ounce portion of beef, while accounting for only 10% of the calories in a 2,000 calorie diet, provides 50% of the daily requirement for protein, 40% of the requirement for zinc, and 15% of the requirement for iron.

Black Canyon Angus Beef also delivers nutrients that offer several important health benefits. One of these nutrients is CLA, a derivative of linoleic acid. CLA has been demonstrated to help protect against certain types of cancer, arthritis, and diabetes. CLA has also been shown to enhance immune response and have a positive effect on body composition by supporting lean body tissue development over fat tissue development.
