Thanks to its high iron content, this ham can be the perfect ally in preventing osteoporosis. In addition, its zinc content improves attention span, comprehension and retention.<\/li>\n<li>It is <strong>easy to digest<\/strong>, containing a reduced level of collagen due to the meat maturation process and protease activity (enzymes that fragment proteins into amino acids), and as such our digestive system can more easily break down amino acids.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #e82f37;\"><strong>On nitrites and nitrates<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Nitrites and nitrates are preservatives added to all cured ham during the salting process in order to control microbial development and guarantee microbiological safety for the consumer. In addition, they emphasize the flavour and colour of cured products.<\/p>\n<p>The levels of nitrites in cured hams are highly regulated by European authorities: the maximum amount of nitrates is 150 ppm, which is what is necessary to maintain microbiological safety and organoleptic benefits.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, it can be said the <strong>Serrano ham is one of the healthiest red meats in existence<\/strong>, as much due to its origin as its elaboration, which does not involve cooking, frying or smoking.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #e82f37;\"><strong>Difference from other cured hams: Spanish Serrano ham, the healthiest<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\u201cBayonne Ham\u201d as well as Prosciutto di Parma and San Daniele have longer and more extended contact with salt, the original source of nitrates. With Serrano ham, this contact does not exceed 15 days; however, in other hams it can be prolonged up to 30 days. In the case of Black Forest Ham, the salting process is accompanied by a smoking process which is a factor that increases the problem of nitrosamines.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;]\n<div id=\"ersspace-2\"><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">#ersspace-2 { height: 260px; }\n@media handheld, only screen and (max-width: 767px) {\n\t#ersspace-2 { height: 0px; }\n}<\/style>[vc_row_inner el_class=&#8221;panel-special-aside&#8221;][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #e82f37;\"><strong>Serrano ham and the WHO report: the healthiest red meat<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The report published in 2015 by the WHO on red meat notes that the elements to be monitored are heme iron, chemical compounds such as N-nitroso (nitrosamines), and aromatic hydrocarbons.<\/p>\n<p>But not all red meats are the same: for example, the fat from ruminant animals (such as beefs or cows) is much richer in saturated fatty acids than the fat from pigs.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, in the case of Serrano ham, there are some minerals such as, for example, zinc, which is present in Serrano ham, that help to counteract the excess of iron.<\/p>\n<p>With respect to nitrosamines, this are mostly produced at high temperatures (cooked or fried meat); smoking also increases the presence of nitrosamines in the meat.
