Pigeon, meat only, roasted, weighed with bone

Pigeon is a type of poultry. This entry describes roasted pigeon meat only, with the weight of the bone included in the measurement. Per 100g weighed with bone, it provides 14g of protein, 3.7g of fat, 3.4mg of iron and 4µg of vitamin B12. These figures therefore differ from values given for the same weight of edible meat alone.

Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. Iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood, while vitamin B12 supports normal nerve function and red blood cell formation. Added salt, sauces or cooking fats can change the nutritional content of a prepared dish. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
