2. "Fast Chicken" Hormone Levels Exceed Standards, Is Free-Range Chicken More Nutritious?
There is also a rumor that the chicken sold on the market is all "fast chicken" with poor nutritional value, and if you want to eat chicken, you have to eat home-raised "free-range chicken." Is this statement true?
Liang Qingyue, director of the Clinical Nutrition Department of Chengdu Seventh People's Hospital, said that the so-called "fast chicken" is actually a scientifically optimized breed—broiler chicken. The characteristics of this type of chicken are fast growth, abundant and tender meat, and they are not artificially accelerated by hormones.
