	Another Good Reason to Eat Beef Choline is the latest micronutrient to be added to the list of nutrients of which beef is a good or excellent source. A 3-ounce serving of lean beef supplies 18% of the daily value for choline, a nutrient necessary for cell membrane structure, sleep, muscle movement, pain regulation, memory and as an aid in the transmission of nerve impulses. The U.S. Institute of Medicine recommends an adequate daily intake of 550 mg/day for men and 425 mg/day for women.


Ohio's beef producers believe that providing animals with the care, handling and nutrition they deserve is an obligation, not an option. To learn more about this commitment and how beef gets from the pasture to your plate, visit www.explorebeef.org.
