Why You Should Consider Buying Free-Range Chicken Breast

Why You Should Consider Buying
Free-Range Chicken Breast
Thailand is the 8th largest producer of chicken in the world and produces
approximately 3 million tonnes of chicken meat each year. 60% is
consumed domestically and the remaining 40% is exported. However,
things have changed post-Covid-19. A slump in demand for chicken meat
has been seen domestically resulting in a slash in cost too. On the other
side, the demand from a few countries increased due to lockdown.
There are two ways in which this chicken farming is done – Conventionally
and free-range farming. Mostly they are farmed in clusters. As time passes,
consumer awareness has increased about what kind of chicken meat is
good for them. ‘You Are What You Eat’. The more natural, toxic-free food
you eat, the more nutrients you get from it! As per reports, it has been
seen demand for free-range chicken breast has been more as compared
to the conventional ones.

Free-range chickens are believed to have access to outer space,
instead of just being put in cages. Outer space could be grassy pasture,
any random piece of land of mud or gravel. It is better for both chickens
and the consumers. Conventionally grown chickens don’t have much
exposure to outer space and upon that they are fed with fortified
grains, which in return is not that beneficial for consumers. In a study of
400 chickens in 280 days, free-range hens scored better than
conventional hens. Let’s check out some factors which contribute to
making free-range chicken breast a healthier option:
1- Rich source of Protein – Chicken
meat is considered to be highly rich in
protein, and breast is the leanest edible
part. 85gms of roasted, skinless chicken
breast provides 27 grams of protein
and has close to just 128 calories and 0
carbohydrates. It is included in a weight
loss high protein diet. The chicken
breast of a free-range chicken supplies
more than half of the body’s daily
protein needs, with the least
accompanying fat.
2- Excellent source of Vitamins and Minerals– Free-range chicken
breast comparatively more of Vitamins B, D, A, Potassium, and Sodium,
than the conventional ones. Possibly exposure to more sunlight and
fresh air is the reason for the difference.
3- Doesn’t disrupt females hormones– Conventional chicken meat is
believed to disrupt hormones leading to polycystic ovary syndrome in
females. Also, a study proved having conventional meat affects one’s
cholesterol levels. Free-range chicken meat is safe (or we can say
should) to have to protect your body in many ways.

4- Better taste– Consumers find free-range chicken tastier than
conventional chicken. Organic food always tastes better. Better diet,
outdoor access and natural shelter given to free-range chicken
contribute to making the meat juicier, tender, and better textured.
5- Fat-free meat– Conventional are subjected to artificial supplements
and growth hormones. As a result, they have more fat in their muscles.
But this fat isn’t good at all for consumers. Free-range chicken breasts
are bigger and the meat is sumptuous, also because they get living
conditions. Putting these animals in tight cages, short of spaces makes
them grow but not healthy growth.
6- Free from harmful bacteria– As per a report by Consumer Reports
in 2013, conventional chicken meat was tested to have harmful bacteria
like Salmonella, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus aureus, and
Enterococcus. These unnaturally big size chickens are toxic for
consumer health because of regular antibiotics given.
