Poultry consumption in the West has long been touted for numerous benefits. These include consuming high-quality proteins, having water-soluble B vitamins with numerous benefits for salutary effects on the brain and metabolism, having several essential minerals that support muscle and bone health, and providing lower-fat options than many other meat products. According to the United States Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2020–2025 (USDGA), poultry has been defined as all forms of chicken, turkey, duck, geese, guineas, and game birds (e.g., quail and pheasant). These guidelines advocate consuming 100g as a standard portion of poultry and suggest its consumption one to three times a week.
