Salmon, wild, baked

Wild salmon is an oily fish, and the figures here describe it baked. It mainly provides protein and fat, with 27g of protein and 12g of fat per 100g. This includes 2.5g of saturated fat. It also provides vitamin D, at 10µg per 100g, alongside other vitamins and minerals.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and supports normal bone and muscle function. For people watching their saturated fat or salt intake, preparation is worth noting: added butter or salt will change the amounts in the finished dish. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
