jerky

[amarula]

Can this be considered a good healthy protein source?

 

[drinkyboy]

Sure just watch the sodium content

 

[drinkyboy]

In moderation I would say

Jerky is great. It has a decent amount of protein and there are various kinds; beef, turkey, gator, etc. It is very portable too if you need something on the run.

and watch out for brands with MSG

I've seen there is a light jerky that is low on sodium and good on protein

how could drying a meat somehow make it any different as far as "bad" and "good"?

I eat a $10 bag of protein while doing my grocery shopping....

I wouldn't worry about the sodium unless you have high blood pressure. Just make sure you water intake it adequate.

I wouldn't worry about the sodium unless you have high blood pressure. Just make sure you water and potassium intake it adequate.

I love jerky!! Costco sells beef, turkey, and pork like 2 1lb packs for $10.
Bad thing is I can't stop eating it once I start...
