Duck

Duck , as well as most foods , can be included in a nutritionally well-balanced healthy diet . As any competent nutritionist knows it is the actual intake of nutrients on a daily ( or a period of a few days ) basis that is important . Maintaining an adequate intake of the nutrients we need and avoiding excessive consumption of calories , fat and cholesterol , requires making intelligent choices with regard to the particular foods , and especially the amount of each food consumed . This is true whether duck is a part of one's diet or not . When duck ( or any of a long list of other foods ) is included in the menu , some adjustments in the amounts of other items on the menu may be necessary . The fact that duck is usually consumed less frequently than meats such as chicken , beef or pork , makes it relatively simple to add duck to a weekly menu and at the same time adhere to the dietary guidelines of nutritional authorities such as the National Research Council , Food and Nutrition Board , which publishes Recommended Dietary Allowances ( RDA's ) , and without exceeding the intake of total calories , total fat , saturated fat and cholesterol recommended by the American Heart Association ( AHA ) . The choice of duck leg or duck breast without skin makes it even easier to meet nutritional standards with minimal sacrifices of other foods included in the weekly menu .
