Nutritional value:

Chicken meat is an important source of high biological value protein, iron, phosphorus and magnesium and contains B-complex vitamins, such as B12. Chicken is a healthier alternative to red meat. According to the Mediterranean Diet Pyramid, up to 4 servings of chicken can be consumed per week. Compared to other types of meat, chicken is a better option as it has the lowest content in total and saturated fat. Grapes are a quite important source of carbohydrates and are rich in carotenoids such as lutein and zeaxanthin, substances with possible beneficial effects on eye health. Grapes also contain selenium, which supports the body's immune system by protecting against the effects of free radicals.
