- Just a quick lunch I rustled up. Salmon, avocado with a squeeze of lemon coupled sprouts, green beans, spiralised carrots and tomatoes, gently fried in garlic and ginger, finished off with a drizzle of sesame oil!!! Yummy!!

Salmon is an excellent source of vitamin B12, vitamin D, and selenium. It is a good source of niacin,
Healthy fats, B12 and Vit D….and many more benefits
omega-3 fatty acids, protein, phosphorus, and vitamin B6. It is also a good source of choline, pantothenic acid, biotin, and potassium.
- With so much focus on the amazing omega-3 benefits of salmon, other unique health benefits from salmon may have been inadvertently overlooked. One fascinating new area of health benefits involves the protein and amino acid content of salmon. Several recent studies have found that salmon contains small bioactive protein molecules (called bioactive peptides) that may provide special support for joint cartilage, insulin effectiveness, and control of inflammation in the digestive tract. One particular bioactive peptide called calcitonin (sCT) has been of special interest in these studies. The reason is because a human form of calcitonin is made by the thyroid gland, and we know that it is a key hormone for helping regulate and stabilize the balance of collagen and minerals in the bone and surrounding tissue. As researchers learn more and more about salmon peptides—including sCT—we expect to see more and more potential health benefits discovered related to inflammation, including inflammation of the joints.
