Beef Tongue Each/kg
Tongue offers some health advantages by increasing your iron and zinc consumption. Both iron and zinc maintain your health — zinc boosts your immune system so that your body is able to fight off infection, while iron prevents anemia, a condition characterized by reduced oxygen transport, which causes fatigue. Iron also helps your cells produce energy, while zinc supports wound healing. A 3-ounce serving of simmered cow tongue contains 3.5 milligrams of zinc, which contributes 44 percent toward the daily recommended zinc intake for women and 32 percent for men.
Each portion of cooked cow tongue also boasts 2.2 milligrams of iron — 28 and 12 percent of the daily iron intakes set for men and women, respectively.
Tongue’s choline and vitamin B-12 content also makes it an advantageous addition to your meal plans. Both choline and B-12 play a role in nervous system health — vitamin B-12 helps you make myelin that insulates your nerves, while choline makes up a component of chemicals needed for nerve communication.
Including tongue in your pets diet also helps you consume more protein. Each tongue contains 16.4 grams of protein and, like other animal-based protein, it provides all the essential amino acids. This means that the protein in cow or pork tongue provides all the building blocks your cells need to assemble new proteins in your tissue — a process that promotes tissue strength, maintains your pets hormone balance and helps your pet make antibodies essential for immune function.
