Turkey is rich in selenium, a mineral that has been linked to cancer prevention. Studies show selenium induces DNA repair and synthesis in damaged cells. Turkey also is rich in niacin. It's been proven that a deficiency in niacin and other B-complex vitamins has been linked to DNA damage.
As it so happens, turkey is also a good source of vitamin B6, which gives the body plenty of energy. If you're not sure the best way to use turkey in your recipe repertoire, start off by using it as a replacement for ground beef. Make turkey burgers instead of beef burgers. Or enjoy it on a sandwich or salad. The possibilities are endless.
