But why shouldyou choose beef in the first place?The most important reasons are to obtain many of the key nutrients needed byyour body and to enjoy its taste. |\n| --- | --- |\n\nNUTRITION  \n\n| About 50separate nutrients are essential to health and no single food contains them all. Vitamin B12, for instance, is found in beef, which isn’ta good source of vitamin C. Onthe other hand, oranges contain vitamin C, but no vitamin B12.\u003Cbr>For this reason, dietitians and health advisors recommend we consume a wide variety of foods from the different food groups every day. One typeof food can’t do the job alone, and extra amounts of one nutrient can’t make up for too little of another. To help you choose the right variety and amounts, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) provides dietary guidance. This guidance provides information on choosing a healthful diet. It recommends eating a variety of foods for essential nutrients and appropriate amounts of calories to maintain or improve body weight. It also emphasizes foods from the five major food groups (grains, fruits, vegetables, protein, dairy products). Each of these food groups provides some, but not all, of the essential nutrients. Foods in one group cannot totally replace those in another. No one food group is more important than another—all are necessary for good health.\u003Cbr>Today, in America, we continue to hear concerns about obesity as it relates to public health. At the sametime, Americans are not meeting their needs for many important nutrients. These facts point out the need to |  | not only consume foods from each food group, but also choose foods within each food group that provide the most nutrients for calories. We all must balance the calories we eat with the calories we expend. At the same time we consume foods which contain different amounts and combinations of nutrients. Naturally nutrient-rich foods are those foods that give more and greater amounts of nutrients than other foods in the same food group. For good health, choose naturally nutrient-rich foods first to make the best use of your calories. You can then choose other less nutrientrich foods as long as you stay within your caloric allowance.\u003Cbr>The Protein Foods Group is an important component of dietary guidance because it contributes to the Daily Value (DV) of many key nutrients, like protein, iron, zinc, and many B-vitamins. The DV for a nutrient refers to the amount most teens and adults should eat each day. The value (recommended amount) is based on a person who eats about 2,000 calories each day. The DV is approximate because the exact amount each person needs varies with age, gender and activity level. The chart below lists the DV of many essential nutrients found in meat.\u003Cbr>Beef is one of the most naturally nutrient-rich foods in the Protein Foods group because it provides a high percentage of the DV of many of these nutrients.\u003Cbr>Daily Values (DVs) for Some Key Nutrients\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Protein 50 grams\u003Cbr>Niacin (B3) 20 milligrams\u003Cbr>Vitamin B6 2.0 milligrams\u003Cbr>Vitamin B12 6.0 micrograms\u003Cbr>Iron 18 milligrams\u003Cbr>Zinc 15 milligrams\u003Cbr>|\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| | |  |\n\nAgram isabout one-thirtieth of an ounce and weighs about the same as a paper clip.  \nA milligram is one-thousandth of a gram.
