Bacon contains a few nutrients that are good for you, including high-quality protein, and high levels of essential vitamins and minerals including thiamin, vitamin B12, iron, zinc, naisin, and selenium. One of the bacon health benefits is that it has a high protein to fat ratio, making it a good source of animal protein.
It does contain fat, of course; about half is saturated fat, while about half of the fat content is unsaturated and contains Omega-3 fatty acids, which do have health benefits. The protein in bacon is good for your heart health and brain health. In fact, bacon is high in something called choline, a compound which has been shown to benefit brain health.
