Bison Meat is a Bargain

Bison per pound may be higher than a comparable cut of beef. You will find this difference negligible as less will go farther due to almost no shrinkage- and you will save energy too with lower heat and a shorter cooking time.

American
Heart Association Recommends Bison

Reprinted from Bison World, April/May/June 2001

You can be heart-healthy and consume lean meat without sacrificing taste and flavour. Bison meat is a satisfying and healthy alternative to lean poultry and fish. The American Heart Association has included bison as a lean meat option on their recent brochure: An Eating Plan for Healthy Americans.

As part of a healthy diet, the AHA recommends that each person eat up to 6 ounces of cooked lean meat, poultry, or fish per day. In their brochure, "lean cuts of buffalo" are included as an option. The AHA further states that buffalo meat is "very low in fat, cholesterol, and sodium."

The American Heart Association has also made their diet recommendations available online. You will find the daily recommendations for meat, poultry
and fish at www.americanheart.org. In addition to the guidelines, the web site has links to recipes and articles on nutrition.

Why Eat Bison?

Pure and simple it's the taste! Bison is the most flavorful red meat available to today's consumer. Naturally nutritious, tender, and easy to prepare - it just doesn't get any better than that! Bison is a dense meat, satisfying you more while eating less, and will not shrink down after cooking.

Bison is an excellent red meat source, low in fat, high in protein, rich in flavor. Research conducted by Dr. M. Marchello, University of North Dakota, has shown that bison is a highly nutrient-dense food because of the proportion of protein, fat, minerals and fatty acids to its caloric value. Comparison of the nutritional values of bison has shown that bison meat is low in fat and calories and high in protein and nutrients. Studies also prove that bison has a greater concentration of iron as well as some of the essential fatty acids.

One serving of bison meat provides 34% of the daily recommended amounts of protein, 32% of zinc, 33% of iron, 10% of niacin, 20% of phosphorus, 14% of vitamin B6 and 42% of the antioxidant selenium.
