- Amazing red meat -

Subhanallah...The Amazing Red Meat


Your brain is the smartest microprocessor on the planet. Weighing just 1.4 kg, it's around 75% water, yet it's packed with an astounding 100 billion nerve cells and about 150000 km of nerve fibres. They give your brain the ability to do the most amazing things; think, feel, remember, imagine. You may not have realised it, but, thank to your amazing brain, you are genius. To keep your brain fit and firing, you need critical nutrients, such as iron, zinc, omega-3s, amino acid and vitamin B12. They hel you concentrate keep alert, think clearly and stay happy in your daily life. And these five can all be found in one amazing food - RED MEAT.


Iron: Wonderfuel for brains
People low in iron may feel slow in mind and body. Iron is critical for carrying the oxygen in blood that cells need to make energy. And your brain needs lots of fuel.


Zinc: Super mineral
After iron, zinc is the second most concentrated mineral in your brain. It's involved in virtually every job that brain cells do, especially growth and repair.

Omega-3S: Mega brainy
These well-known brain nutrients are the building blocks of your brain, giving shape and structure to its cell walls.

Amino acids: Food for thought
Amino acids are needed to make the clever chemical messengers that allow your brain cells to talk to each other.

B12: The B in Brain
We can think fast because nerve fibre transmit their electrical signals ultra quickly, as fast as 150 mtres per second. Vitamin B12 is a key ingredient in the fibres that help give them this superpower.

RED MEAT: The Amazing Food
Red Meat naturally contains all these brain nutrients. it is part of a healthy and balanced diet which can help prevent iron and zinc deficiency. If you don't get enough of these everyday nutrients, your brain can feel strain. This can dull your daily performance, by affecting functions like your memory, attention and learning.
