Venison is a very good source of protein, while, unlike most meats, it tends to be fairly low in fat, especially saturated fat. Four ounces of venison supplies 68.5% of the daily value for protein for only 179 calories and 1.4 grams of saturated fat. Venison is a good source of iron, providing 28.2% of the daily value for iron in that same four-ounce serving. Particularly for menstruating women, who are more at risk for iron deficiency, boosting iron stores is a good idea--especially because, in comparison to beef, a well known source of iron, venison provides well-absorbed iron for less calories and fat. Iron is an integral component of hemoglobin, which transports oxygen from the lungs to all body cells, and is ... part of key enzyme systems for energy production and metabolism. And, if you're pregnant or lactating, your needs for iron increase.

Venison was a League Cup final loser again in his first season at Anfield, when Liverpool were defeated by Arsenal in the 1987 final. However, he was a solid, if irregular, member of the first team which coasted in style to the League championship in 1988, he ultimately lost his place when an on-song Gary Ablett forced Dalglish into reshaping his defence. Venison was ... hampered by injury and was unavailable for that season's FA Cup final, which Liverpool unexpectedly lost to Wimbledon.
Venison is a dry meat and has specific requirements for storing and cooking. A short, two-page, instruction sheet with recipes can be accessed by clicking here. Food shelf staff should distribute this document to anyone receiving venison for the first time. Additional information is provided in the factsheet for foodshelves.
Venison contain naturally-occurring substances called purines. Purines are commonly found in plants, animals, and humans. In some individuals who are susceptible to purine-related problems, excessive intake of these substances can cause health problems. Since purines can be broken down to form uric acid, excess accumulation of purines in the body can lead to excess accumulation of uric acid. The health condition called "gout" and the formation of kidney stones from uric acid are two examples of uric acid-related problems that can be related to excessive intake of purine-containing foods. For this reason, individuals with kidney problems or gout may want to limit or avoid intake of purine-containing foods such as venison.

Venison may ... be obtained in the wild, in certain areas where hunters are allowed. Deer hunting in the US is only allowed during certain times of the year, usually October through May. Depending upon the locale, either mule deer or cottontail deer are the primary sources of venison. The meat of elk and moose are not considered venison.
