Children had their blood sugar, cholesterol and fat levels checked before visiting with USMEF Roy’s Club characters Roy, Alberto and Sam. At the USMEF booth, parents received U.S. meat nutrition information and could enroll their children in Roy’s Club, which introduces children to the importance of eating a balanced meal with red meat as a key ingredient. As club members, kids can earn prizes and learn more about keeping healthy with proper nutrition and exercise.
Lean cuts of U.S. meat help keep blood sugar levels within a safe range and are a good source of protein in a healthy diet designed to manage calories and fat intake to prevent obesity and high cholesterol, which can lead to diabetes complications.
For example, U.S. pork tenderloin contains 139 calories and 1.4 grams of saturated fat per 3-ounce serving, which compares favorably to chicken breast and is much less than chicken thigh meat.
