Turkey Recipes for Bodybuilding

Turkey is a great choice for any bodybuilder as it is very low in calories and will give you very little fat content with a high good quality protein that can be easily digested. A small 33 gram piece of Turkey will give you 6 grams of protein with only 1 gram of fat which will only be 34 calories.

If we compare the difference between turkey and beef then you will notice that although turkey will often not give you the same amount of protein per gram that beef will give you there are many advantages of having turkey instead of a beef burger.

If your specific objective is to lose fat then it is recommended by the experts that you should rather select turkey when compared to beef. Turkey will have a lot less sodium and potassium that beef but will have more calcium and more cholesterol than beef with the same weight.
