Burger, beef, 98-99% beef, raw

This beef burger is made almost entirely from beef, and the figures describe it raw, based on samples of chilled and frozen products. It mainly provides fat and protein, with very little carbohydrate. Per 100g, it contains 25g of fat, including 11g of saturated fat, and 17g of protein. Its salt content is 0.73g.

Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. Beef also provides vitamin B12, which contributes to normal nerve function and red blood cell formation, and iron, which is needed to carry oxygen in the blood. The saturated fat and salt content are relevant for people monitoring these in their diet. Cooking can change the nutrient content per weight through water and fat loss.
