SUNSTAINABLE, LOW IMPACT & NURTITIOUS Rabbits reproduce and grow quickly using less resources than many other livestock/animals used for protein in captivity, so they are known to have a light impact on the earth. Rabbit is extremely lean and an all-white meat that is a good source of highly-quality proteins, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B12, and minerals like calcium and potassium. Fryer rabbits are composed of approx. 21% protein and 28% bone. Rabbit provides a nice balance of fatty acids; rabbit meat is higher in omega-3 than typical, commercially-raised chicken.
Rabbit is a novel protein that works nicely for many animals with food intolerances/reactivity - very popular as a short-term single protein food for elimination diet protocols.
In TCM, rabbit is considered a cooling protein that may be used to quell fiery yang imbalances with cooling gentle yin energy.
BIT OF TRIVIA Rabbit meat is so lean that for Artic explorers consuming a diet of 100% wild rabbit exclusively, they developed a serious condition now known as “rabbit starvation.” We recommend enjoying rabbit with a serving of healthy pasture-raised or wild fat, or serve as a varied diet including plenty of moderate to higher-fat nourishing foods (pork, lamb, egg yolks, ghee, pasture-raised butter, cod livers, for example).
