Tonight's entree for supper: Wild Sockeye Salmon
THIS IS ONE FILLET THAT THE BEAR DIDN'T GET !
Nutrition
Wild sockeye salmon is a rich protein source, with nearly 16 g of protein in each 3-oz. serving. Each portion also contains close to 35 g of sodium, 318.9 g of potassium and 6 mg of calcium. Canning salmon with the bones increases the calcium content to 188 mg per serving.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Wild sockeye salmon is high in a type of omega-3 fatty acid called DHA that is important to health. DHA helps protect against heart disease, lowers cholesterol levels and may help slow Alzheimer's, according to Colorado State University Extension. Sockeye salmon contains 1,046 mg of DHA per serving, more than twice the recommended daily intake.
