New Delhi [India], June 13: As the summer sun shines brighter and our routines shift to match longer days and lighter appetites, it becomes even more essential to revisit what's going on our plates--especially when it comes to protein. Whether it's growing kids on school break, busy professionals juggling travel plans, or elderly family members looking for digestible meals, one thing is clear: protein remains a non-negotiable part of a balanced summer diet.

'Turkey is an excellent example of a lean meat that supports high-quality protein intake without adding unnecessary saturated fat,' says Gunja Chatwal, Nutritionist. She further adds, 'Especially during summer, when digestion slows and appetite fluctuates, proteins like U.S. turkey provide sustained energy, aid muscle repair, and help regulate blood sugar levels--all while being light and versatile.'

'Turkey, especially from the U.S., is a high-quality, lean protein source that fits seamlessly into the Indian summer table. Unlike heavier meats that can feel dense and difficult to digest in hot weather, turkey is light on the stomach but rich in nutrition, making it perfect for all age groups,' says Devna Khanna, In-Country Marketing Representative, USA Poultry & Egg Export Council (USAPEEC).

Growing children need a regular supply of protein for development, especially during the summer when outdoor play and activities increase. Whether you're working from home, commuting to the office, or enjoying a family vacation, turkey is a wonderful way to stay full without feeling sluggish. It's high in protein but low in fat, making it a smart pick for those watching their weight or seeking to stay fit during the season. U.S. Turkey is a soft, easily chewable meat that is gentle on digestion--good for those who often prefer lighter meals.

The beauty of U.S. turkey lies in its culinary adaptability. It can be seasoned with Indian spices, grilled, shredded, or lightly sauteed for use in salads, rolls, thalis, and even comfort dishes like biryani, kathi rolls, or kebabs. Its mild flavor allows it to blend well with traditional Indian recipes without overpowering the dish. What set U.S. Turkey apart are the strict quality control, safety standards, and sustainability practices it follows in production.
