摘要

Meat is a fundamental source of nutrition for humans that provide essential proteins, vitamins, and minerals. Lean meats such as turkey and chicken offer good-quality protein crucial for muscle growth. Including lean meat in your regular diet supplies indispensable nutrients such as iron as well as zinc, which boost energy metabolism and immune function. This chapter delivers a comprehensive examination of the present status and future prospects of healthy meat products. It focuses on the nutritional profile of meat and its considerable impact on health. A detailed evaluation incorporates the roles of unsaturated fatty acids (USFAs), dietary fibers, minerals, and antioxidant vitamins in evaluating the health implications of meat consumption as well as the emergence of healthy meat products as functional foods. Furthermore, the chapter explores fundamental approaches for the development of healthy meat products. Besides, this chapter also includes a thorough assessment of the animal production practices, nutrition and feeding management, and genetic strategies, including in-vivo meat production methods. Additionally, this chapter explains the reformulation of healthy meat products, including optimization of FA profiles, assimilation of plant proteins as well as the incorporation of probiotics. This chapter also outlines the strategies for enhancing the health profile of meat products, emphasizing the integration of plant-based oils through innovative methods such as microencapsulation, direct mixing, emulsions, and processed meat products.
