You are young, so you can take it.....

Me, I need more fat and fiber to keep the old intestine in decent working order.

the beef Jerky, do you make it yourself?

Aha. My sympathies, I hope you recover speedily!

Be aware of that most Mango varieties have fibers that are very rough on the stomach.
My favourite is "Filipine Brand".
If I do not count my own home grown and dried!

My guts function all too well.

Slice the semi frozen meat across the grain as thin as you like.
Soak in the marinade of your choice ( thousands on the Innertube).
On a cake rack, over a sheet pan, oven at 250F with the door cracked open an inch.
Using burger/mince involves a little more to keep it together. No big deal.

In any case, it will freeze well and maybe even freeze dry a little which is a good thing.
