A Growing Industry

The last decade has seen Kangaroo meat move from the fine dining restaurant to the dinner table of thousands of families across Australia.

There are several reasons for the transition. The first is an introduction of a series of innovative products and packaging from Macro Meats made available through Australian supermarkets. The second is the amazing health benefits of Kangaroo meat.

Kangaroo meat is approved by the National Heart Foundation of Australia and many of its products are marked with the Tick of Approval. It is also used by thousands of people to help recover from coronary disease and thrombosis and is served in hospitals across the country.

Kangaroo meat is low in fat, high in Iron and high in Protein.

Kangaroo has also been flagged as the highest known dietary source of CLA. Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) is natural fatty acid which, in many studies has shown to reduce body fat, in particular abdominal fat. It has been proven to change the serum lipid totals and decrease overall body glucose uptake.
