Beef Jerky benefits for the body

Beef Jerky benefits for the body

RECOVERY & BUILDING MUSCLE

Each 85g bag of Nungra Nibbles Teriyaki flavour Beef Jerky contains 38g of protein which equates to 12.6g per serve. These high levels of protein provide the essential amino acids that muscles need to repair and rebuild. This not only allows you to recover from exercise, but also helps you get stronger over time. This is a big tick for pretty much all types of athletes… including Bodybuilders, whose snacks and meals are centred around a high protein diet for crucial muscle development. High Zinc levels in jerky also contribute to muscle strength & recovery, as well as improved sleep and increased immunity – which is particularly great for endurance athletes.

ENERGISING

The body can also use protein as a source of energy. The combination of protein, iron & zinc, which jerky delivers in bucket-loads, translates into a powerhouse for athletes.

CONVENIENT

Our jerky doesn’t need to be refrigerated, comes in a small bag of 3 servings, and comes ready to eat – it doesn’t get much more convenient than that! These features make it the ultimate on-the-go, high protein snack… whether you’re hitting the gym or heading off mountain biking. Jerky is also great for the adventurer in you – where you may be heading off for a period of time so have limited access to fresh food but need your hit of protein!

LOW CALORIE

A bag of Nungra Nibbles Teriyaki flavour Beef Jerky, for example, has 283 calories per 85g pack which equates to 94.3g per serving! This is great news for those athletes who want to lose weight, maintain a healthy weight, or need to replace calories after a light workout!

WEIGHTLOSS

Packed with protein, jerky offers a satisfying and filling option that can help control hunger and cravings, making it a great addition to any weight loss plan. Moreover, jerky is often low in fat and carbohydrates, making it a suitable choice for those who are watching their calorie intake. A bag of Nungra Nibbles Teriyaki flavour Beef Jerky, for example, each 28.3g serving has 2.3g total fat, 3.8g total carbohydrates, and 3.2g total sugars.
