Game birds are birds that are hunted for sport or food. These birds include species such as pheasants, quail, grouse, and partridge. They are known for their lean, flavorful meat and are often enjoyed as a delicacy.
Game birds such as pheasant, quail, and partridge are excellent sources of lean protein, low in fat and high in nutrients such as iron, zinc, and B vitamins.
Consuming game birds may pose health risks similar to other types of poultry, such as the risk of foodborne illness if not handled and cooked properly. Additionally, wild game birds may carry certain parasites and bacteria, so it's important to ensure proper cooking and sanitation methods are followed to minimize these risks.
The recommendations for how much meat to include in the diet vary. For example, EAT-Lancet Commission suggests to consume no more than around 200 grams of poultry meat per week. (1) It is important to consume a balanced diet with a variety of foods, so be sure to incorporate other sources of protein, vegetables, and grains into your meals as well.
Most game birds are considered white meat.
