How much is a serving of chicken?

There's no single answer to how much a serving of chicken is! It depends on a few factors:

* Your age, gender, and activity level: A more active person or someone with a higher metabolism might need more than someone who is less active.

* Your dietary goals: Are you trying to lose weight, maintain your weight, or gain muscle?

* The overall meal: If you're having a side of vegetables and a starch with your chicken, you might want a smaller portion than if you're having a salad with just a small piece of chicken.

General Guidelines:

* For adults, a serving of cooked chicken is typically 3-4 ounces (85-115 grams). This is about the size of a deck of cards.

* For kids, a serving is usually smaller, around 2-3 ounces (55-85 grams).

Here's a breakdown of serving sizes for different types of chicken:

* Chicken breast: A 3-4 ounce serving.

* Chicken thigh: A 3-4 ounce serving.

* Chicken drumstick: One drumstick is a serving.

* Chicken wings: Two wings are usually considered a serving.

Important Note: It's always a good idea to check with your doctor or a registered dietitian for personalized dietary recommendations.
