All my life I’ve loved the chicken skin. It makes me happy to finally hear it is good for you.

i read that you need some of both to get a complete protein as the amino acid taurine is only found in the dark meat.

My mother-in-law often commented how much she liked chicken and said the skin was the best part. They ate a lot of chicken because they raised their own. She lived to be 106 and 9 months.

This is a very good article about an important health choice. Not about vitamin K which is found in leafy greens, which most of us get more than enough on a weekly basis. More importantly about vitamin K2 which most people in the world do not get enough of. Also because people who do not consume K2 will most likely have heart problems some time in their life due to a lack of. Even the best athlete’s, especially marathon runners. What happens is calcium deposits over time clog our arteries and if you happen to be a long distance runner that time period speeds up. Vitamin K2 actually pushes calcium to where it is needed in your body. Dark poultry especially goose is a great source of vitamin K2 but there are many other more good choices if perhaps you’re a vegetarian.

I am also trying to make healthier food for my cats who really need taurine to survive. The recipe suggested to me used turkey and chicken legs, it’s nice to confirm this was a good choice. I am laughing now because ever since I was a kid I loved the skin, legs, wings and dark meat the best. Your article is wonderful confirmation of my instincts.
