Salmon Nutrition

3Salmon is an oily fish that offers a variety of health benefits. Every 100 grams (g) of salmon contains about 20 g of protein ), making it an excellent source of this nutrient. Protein acts as an energy source and supports a range of bodily functions, such as building and repairing cells and body tissue. It is an essential nutrient for human health, which means that the body requires it to function but cannot produce a sufficient amount itself.

Another essential nutrient that salmon provides is omega-3 fatty acids. In addition to supporting various functions of the body, omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of heart disease.

Salmon is also a good source of minerals, including magnesium, potassium, and selenium, and it is rich in vitamins B-12 and D.
