% DV refers to how much a single serving of an individually packaged food or supplement contributes nutritionally to your daily diet, based on a 2,000-calorie-a-day diet. Generally, having 5% DV or less of a nutrient per serving is considered low, and 20% DV or more of a nutrient per serving is considered high.
Fat Composition
The suggested total fat consumption should be limited to 30% of total energy intake or less. The type of fat consumed should primarily be unsaturated fatty acids, with no more than 10% of total energy intake coming from saturated fatty acids (about 200 calories on a 2000-calorie diet) and no more than 1% of total energy intake coming from trans-fatty acids.

FAQ
Skinless light turkey meat is about as lean as poultry gets. 32.88 g of protein against just 0.67 g of total fat and 0.22 g of saturated fat, with sodium staying low at 70.72 mg. It also has 375.36 mg of potassium, 35.36 mg of magnesium, and 1.66 mg of iron. Cholesterol, at 89.76 mg, is really the only figure worth watching, which mostly comes down to portion size rather than any red flag in the meat itself.
Neither bird has a built in health advantage over the other, the cut and cooking method decide that. Skinless light turkey here is nearly identical in profile to skinless chicken breast, with 0.67 g of total fat, 0.22 g of saturated fat, and 32.88 g of protein. Large dietary pattern studies consistently link diets built around lean proteins, vegetables, whole grains, and unsaturated fats to lower cardiovascular risk, and plain turkey or plain chicken both fit that pattern equally well.
The biggest disadvantage is inconsistency, since the nutrition swings wildly between a lean cut like this one and a fattier, skin on or processed version. This turkey keeps saturated fat to just 0.22 g and sodium to 70.72 mg, with cholesterol at 89.76 mg. Long term trial evidence tying lower saturated fat intake to fewer cardiovascular events is exactly why keeping turkey skinless, rather than avoiding turkey altogether, is the smarter takeaway.
