In recent years, nutrition and food sciences have been studying the relationship between health and food consumption, concluding that healthy consumption helps to cure and prevent some chronic diseases. Healthy feeding has been based on combining food, nutrients and ingredients added to provide certain healthy conditions, by designing the mixtures for the different physiological situations. Probiotic microorganisms, prebiotics (dietary fiber), some vitamins and minerals, plus some anti oxidants, are the mostly used and studied ingredients. Based on this, a defi nition for this kind of products has been studied and developed, calling them “functional food”. Products made from meat, with ingredients that contribute to health, are becoming more popular every day and offer an alternative for consuming foods that allow people to keep and improve their quality of life.
