Learn more about the health benefits of pasture-raised chicken. From essential vitamins (E, D, A), protein, and collagen to antioxidant defence, bone health, and more.
Animals that are raised on pasture, compared to a conventional setting, produce a much more superior product; in nutritional density, vitamin availability and flavour.
This is due to the diverse range of plants and/or insects that the animals are able to consume while out on pasture, absorbing vitamin D from the sun and breathing fresh, clean air.
These animals then make these vitamins and minerals available to us in their meat.
Pasture-raised chicken boasts a healthier ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 polyunsaturated fats.
This balance reduces inflammation in the body and may improve cognitive function, while also lowering the risk of chronic disease.
Pasture raised chicken is notably lower in saturated fats and higher in heart-healthy polyunsaturated fats.
This favourable fat profile can lead to reduced levels of LDL cholesterol, contributing to a lowered risk of cardiovascular diseases like heart attacks.
With high levels of vitamins E, D, and A, along with increased protein and collagen content, pasture-raised chicken plays a significant role in antioxidant protection, bone health, vision, tissue maintenance, and joint health.
