Partridge, meat only, roasted

Partridge is a game bird, and the figures here describe roasted meat only, taken from a dressed carcase. It mainly provides protein and fat, with no carbohydrate. Per 100g, the meat contains 37g of protein, 7.2g of fat and 1.9g of saturated fat. It also provides iron, at 7.7mg per 100g.

Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues, while iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. The fat and saturated fat content may be relevant to people monitoring their intake. Salt added during preparation, or served in sauces and accompaniments, is not included in these meat-only figures.
