Tagliata Style Warm Salad

This is a quick nutritious dinner packed with B vitamins. Red meat is a source of vitamin B12, known for manufacturing red blood cells. B12 also supports myelin function which is vital for neuron signalling and communication. B12 is also necessary for methylation, which marks genes for expression. This helps to create and metabolise neurotransmitters and hormone production, important for mental health support.
