Mullet, Grey, flesh only, raw

Grey mullet is a fish, and the figures here refer to its raw flesh only. Per 100g, it provides 20g of protein and 4g of fat, along with 190µg of iodine and 51µg of selenium. It also contains other minerals and several vitamins.

Protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues. Iodine is needed to make thyroid hormones, which help regulate metabolism, while selenium contributes to normal thyroid function. Cooking can change nutrient amounts per weight through water loss, and added oil or salt can affect the final dish’s fat or salt content. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
