Fresh meats: Nutrition Facts and Calories

This category covers a range of fresh, uncooked meat products, including beef, pork, lamb, poultry, and game. These items are typically sold as whole cuts, joints, or prepared in formats such as mince, steaks, or fillets. The ingredient list for these products generally shows only the meat itself, sometimes with added water or salt. Nutrition labels on fresh meat products primarily provide information on energy, fat (including saturated fat), protein, and carbohydrates. As fresh meats are a source of protein and some are also a source of iron, the focus for consumers is often on the fat content, particularly saturated fat. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) advises that saturated fat intake should be reduced. Salt content is also declared on the nutrition label, and the UK's Committee on Toxicity advises that adults should consume no more than 6g of salt per day. Fibre and sugar content are typically negligible in unprocessed fresh meats. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
