About Tuna
High in protein, commonly used in salads and light meals.
Health Benefits of Tuna
Leading protein content
100g of tuna has 23.3g protein and 4.9g fat - among the highest-protein fish. Rich in myoglobin it is red-fleshed, firm and elastic.
Omega-3 and selenium
Tuna also offers omega-3 and selenium. Water-packed canned tuna is far lower in calories and fat than oil-packed (~100+ kcal/100g), a convenient quick protein.
Raw or canned
Fresh tuna suits sashimi and sushi, best showing its flavour and texture. Drained water-packed tuna can go straight into salads, sandwiches or pasta. Large tuna may carry higher mercury from the food chain; limit to 2-3x/week.
