Red meat is a source of significant amounts of protein and iron, which are necessary for a woman to maintain her body, especially during breastfeeding, heavy menstruation and pregnancy, Anastasia Lozikova, a general practitioner at the Krasnogorsk hospital, told RIA Novosti.
According to her, a woman's proper diet should include not only lots of vegetables, fruits, fish, but also red meat - beef, lamb, veal. Breastfeeding, heavy menstruation, pregnancy - during these periods, a woman may develop iron deficiency, the doctor noted. It can be compensated by including beef in the diet in combination with products rich in vitamin C, Lozikova explained.
According to the doctor, the beneficial properties of red meat include its high protein content, which helps strengthen hair, skin and nails.
