Beef silverside is a cut of beef from the hindquarter. These figures describe the raw, lean meat. It mainly provides protein, with some fat, and also supplies minerals and B vitamins. Per 100g, it contains 24g of protein, 4.3g of fat, including 1.6g of saturated fat, and 2mg of iron.
Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues, while iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. Beef also provides vitamin B12, which supports normal nerve function and red blood cell formation. For people watching saturated fat intake, the fat content is worth noting even in lean meat. Cooking and added ingredients can change the nutrient content per weight. Full figures are in the tables below.
