Tongue, ox, meat only, stewed

Ox tongue is meat from the tongue of cattle. The figures here describe stewed ox tongue with the fat and skin removed. It mainly provides protein and fat, with 19g of protein and 18g of fat per 100g. It also contains 2.1g of salt and 4µg of vitamin B12 per 100g.

Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues, while vitamin B12 is needed for normal nerve function and the formation of red blood cells. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake. Even with the fat and skin removed, this meat still contains fat within the tissue.
