Iberian Ham is a very healthy food, mainly due to the distinctive features of the breed from which it comes. Its oleic acid content is one of the most important factors. This component, which can also be found in olive oil, helps to reduce cholesterol levels and cardiovascular risk.

Boneless Iberian ham should be kept at 50 - 60 degrees F. Once opened, refrigerate and consume within a few months. From date of purchase, unopened shelf life is at least 12 months.
