Chicken meat is recognized as an excellent source of lean protein, low in calories and rich in vitamins and minerals. Among the nutrients contained in good quantities in chicken are phosphorus, which plays an essential role in the formation and maintenance of healthy bones and teeth. Selenium is one of the main antioxidant enzymes, and vitamins B3 and B6 contribute to energy production and the manufacture of red blood cells.
