Nutritional values

Lean pork supplies the body mainly with vitamin B1. Anyone who eats a carbohydrate-rich diet or likes to drink a glass of alcohol needs a particularly large amount of this B vitamin. One portion already covers the entire daily requirement!

Ideal side dishes for roasting pork loin: Potatoes or spaetzle for satiation and sauerkraut as a supplier of vitamin C, to make better use of the iron contained in the meat.
