Do you eat Salmon?

BENOI NAIR|November 5, 2019

 

If fish delicacy were a world in itself, then ‘Salmon’ for sure would have been the star thanks to the nutrients that this fatty fish has to offer. Every 100 gram of fresh salmon holds up to 232 calories, out of which 25 grams are in the form of protein and 14.6 grams is fat, along with ample vitamin B12 and potassium.

Salmon has become an exception for those who like to stay fat-free thanks to its benefits and the main reason for this is ‘Omega-3’ fatty acids, which is an essential fat that cannot be made in a human body. Omega fats are linked to brain and cardiac health, thereby making it a super supplement to your diet.

Does Salmon enhance performance?

Salmon has wonderful benefits for everyone, especially athletes who follow a high-protein diet for optimal performance. Having a good amount of protein in diet stimulates muscle repair and better recovery after serious workouts.

To name a few:

  • Helps prevents heart disease
  • Boosts athletic performance
  • Improves blood flow to lungs and muscles
  • Omega-3 fatty acids in Salmon has anti-inflammatory properties
  • Improves joint health
  • Supplies 50% of the daily Vitamin B12
  • Potassium in Salmon is an important electrolyte that improves nerve-muscle functions
  • Omega-3 has amazing effects on mood disorders such as ‘depression’

What is the best way to have Salmon in your diet?

  • Fresh and Canned Salmon is available in all premier hypermarkets, available with the additional benefit of calcium as it is packed along with bones.
  • Smoked salmon is a great substitute for meat and the best part is its easy digestibility
  • Salmon jerky is one of the most preferred sports snack
  • Sautéed Salmon in a pan tastes delicious
  • Grill it to perfection
  • Don’t want to add extra oil, then poach it with peppercorns and bay leaf

 

Bottom Line: American Health authorities such as FDA (Food and Drug Administration) recommend up to 12 ounces of Salmon per week due to its health benefits. Moreover, you can add variety to your fish diet by including other equally beneficial fish varieties of mackerel, sardines and tuna.
