all meats, supplying just 119 calories and less than half a gram of fat per
3-ounce serving, skinned. Even with skin, a 3-ounce serving only climbs another
55 calories, and the total derives only 18% of its calories from fat. The dark
meat is higher in fat than the light meat, but it is still relatively lean if
eaten without the skin, deriving only about 34% of its calories from fat.
Turkey is high in the nutrients for which meat is known. It is not only an excellent
source of protein, B vitamins (niacin and B6), phosphorus, selenium, and zinc.
