Jerky
Need a snack to power you through the day? Beef jerky continues to be on the rise because it's a flavorful, lean, portable protein. In addition to beef jerky's bold flavor, it packs a low-fat, high-protein nutritional punch to keep you going throughout the day. That means less snacking overall. In fact, registered dietitians say:
"Beef Jerky is a high-quality protein snack, which provides your body with essential amino acids needed to build, maintain, and repair muscle" -Nancy Rodriguez, PhD, RD, FACSM.
"Jerky is always a go-to snack I eat and recommend to clients. I love it in particular when traveling since it's portable, non-perishable, and a great source of high-quality protein" -Chris Mohr, PhD, RD.
