Because of your high ferrum, zinc and vitamins B2, B3, B6 and B1 content.
Because of your unsaturated fatty acid.
Because of your organoleptic properties.
Because you fill up my senses.
It’s been reasserted that Spanish Iberian ham is good for your health.
The Andalusian Technological Center for the Meat Sector (TEICA, Centro Tecnológico Andaluz del Sector Cárnico), promoted by the Economy, Innovation and Science regional ministry of Andalucía (Consejería de Economía, Innovación y Ciencia de la Junta de Andalucía), in cooperation with the Nutrition and Food Technology Institute (INYTA) from the University of Granada, has done the first detailed study about the nutritional Spanish Iberian ham, that compares all the nutritional differences that exist between the breed and diet.
After knowing in the last few years not only the Spanish Iberian ham organolectic properties but his healthy properties because of his high ferrum and unsaturated fatty acids (mainly oleic and linoleic acids) content, this study shows the importance of other micronutrients in his composition, such as ferrum, zinc and vitamins B2, B3, B6 and B1.
All the analysis to Spanish Iberian hams from acorn-fed pigs show that Spanish ham provides:
- Up to 45% of ferrum of the daily recommended intake for Spanish men population.
- 23% of ferrum for women (who normally need more ferrum because of their metabolic needs)
- Between 25 and 26% of zinc (mineral related with the muscle mass increase in the puberty stage, the correct inmunitarial system function and really helpful during lactance period, helping the baby to grow up stronger).
- Vitamins such as B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B6 (piridoxin) and B1 (tiamin).
