Tuna, flesh only, raw

Tuna is a fish, and these figures describe its raw flesh only, based on frozen and chilled samples. It mainly provides protein, with 25g per 100g, alongside 0.7g of fat. It also supplies vitamins and minerals, including 3.2µg of vitamin D and 2.2µg of vitamin B12 per 100g. These figures do not describe canned tuna or tuna prepared with added ingredients.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and supports bone and muscle health, while vitamin B12 is needed for normal nerve function and red blood cell formation. Cooking and added ingredients can change the nutrient content. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
