Home > Health and Nutrition HEALTH AND NUTRITION López Ortega Iberian Bellota Ham is a low-calorie food which is rich in vitamins and contains 50% more protein than fresh meat. Due to the natural and traditional curing process, López Ortega Jamón is a pure and aseptic food and the meat is free from any kind of manipulation. Our Iberian Ham is not just a food product, but also a delicacy with numerous other qualities. As well as being a pleasure for the palate, it also offers great health benefits. Iberian ham is antioxidant and is high in vitamin E. It is especially beneficial when eaten with tomatoes. López Ortega Iberian Bellota Ham contains excellent quality fat, with increased levels of oleic acid (over 50%), as found in olive oil. This facilitates the production of HDL ("good cholesterol") in the body, while reducing LDL ("bad cholesterol"). For these reasons moderate consumption of the product helps to maintain cholesterol levels and prevent cardiovascular diseases. It provides a generous dosage of B group vitamins, especially B1 and B2. Just 100 grams of Iberian ham provides 24% of the recommended daily allowance of this vitamin. It is also rich in iron, magnesium, zinc and calcium and above all phosphorus, providing 30% of the recommended daily allowance. It is a recommended food for hypo-calorific diets as 50 grams of our Iberian Bellota Ham has only 150 calories. Looking after your health is a pleasure with López Ortega Jamón Ibérico.
