The present investigation provides up to date, analytical data regarding the nutritional value of cured cooked meat (lard and various cooked hams) of Swiss origin. The analyzed cooked hams are rich in protein, vitamin B1, niacin and partly in vitamin C as well as in phosphor. They are also valuable sources of further vitamins and minerals. Lard has a lower nutrient density due to the high proportion of fat. However, because of the high salt content of the analyzed cured cooked meats they should be consumed restrictively. Nevertheless, in the setting of a varied and balanced diet they can help to cover nutritional requirements.
