Health, Nutrition & TasteOcean-farmed salmon is a low-fat, high-protein meal that’s full of heart-healthy Omega-3s*, which are important for kids and adults alike. In addition, ocean-farmed salmon tastes great and can be cooked in a variety of ways for the entire family to enjoy. Salmon is the healthy, tasty choice.
Since the Omega-3 content varies widely in fish, it is important to note that ocean-farmed Atlantic salmon, at 1.9 grams per serving, and to a varying degree most species of wild salmon, provide higher levels of Omega-3 fatty acids than most other fish sources. Fresh yellowfin tuna, for example, provides 0.2 gram per serving, swordfish provides 0.6 gram per serving and flounder provides 0.2 gram per serving. Mackerel, at 2.5 grams per serving, is another high-level source of Omega-3 fatty acids. Benefits of Omega-3 Fatty Acids
