Salmon, pink, canned in brine, drained

Pink salmon canned in brine is fish preserved in salt water; the figures here describe the drained fish. The samples include skin and some bones, with large bones removed. It mainly provides protein and fat, with 24g of protein and 4.8g of fat per 100g. It also contains 14µg of vitamin D and 0.88g of salt per 100g.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and supports bone and muscle health. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake, even though the brine has been drained. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
