Spanish White Pork: Healthy and nutritious meat
Easily digestible in general, white pork meat has a high biological and nutritional value, as it provides quality protein and contains all the essential amino acids that are essential for the optimal development of muscle mass, along with minerals such as iron, phosphorus or zinc, which are essential for the maintenance of bones and teeth. In addition, zinc together with selenium and vitamin B6 contribute to the normal functioning of the immune system, and vitamins B1 and B6 contribute to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
For these reasons, pork and meat products are foods with a high density of nutrients necessary at all stages of life and especially for those population groups with increased nutritional needs (pregnancy, growth, sport...).
From the Spanish Inter-professional Agri-Food Organization for White Pork (INTERPORC), we contribute to SDG 3 "Good health and well-being" through the nutritional improvement of pork promoting projects that seek to improve technology, raising awareness among companies to develop actions to reinforce safety and hygiene measures in farms and companies, and promoting a healthy and balanced diet through programs to disseminate its benefits.
In summary, all this shows the effort of all the professionals in the Spanish white pork sector in order to achieve a final product of extraordinary quality, with guaranteed food safety and through socially, environmentally and economically sustainable production.
