About Turkey, all classes, light meat, cooked, roasted
Skinless roasted light meat is the leanest turkey preparation in this group, containing just 2.08 grams of fat per 100 grams and 147 calories. Protein is exceptionally concentrated at 30.1 grams, supplying about 87 percent of the meat's energy. Saturated fat is minimal at 0.593 grams, and there is no carbohydrate. Cholesterol measures 80 milligrams and sodium 99 milligrams per 100 grams, with 249 milligrams of potassium. The pale color of light meat reflects low myoglobin in the breast and other rarely worked muscles. At about 68 percent water, it retains more moisture than the fattier dark and skin-on cuts.
