Trout, rainbow, flesh only, raw

Rainbow trout is a fish, and these figures describe its raw flesh only, based on frozen and chilled samples. It mainly provides protein and fat, along with vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, it contains 20g of protein, 5.3g of fat, 7.9µg of vitamin D and 2.8µg of vitamin B12.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and supports bones and muscles, while vitamin B12 supports normal nerve function and red blood cell formation. Cooking methods and added ingredients can change the fat, salt and energy content of the finished dish. Full nutrient figures for the raw flesh are in the tables below.
