Advantages of White Tuna
When we eat white tuna, we are eating a healthy and wholesome food, essential for a balanced diet. Its high nutritional value increases when it is canned. In addition, canned white tuna can benefit from the added nutritional value of other products (such as olive oil).
The White Tuna Belly is rich in proteins (of high biological value) and contains a large amount of vitamins (A, B, B12 and D, as well as E, which has a protective antioxidant effect). It provides minerals such as calcium and iodine, essential for metabolism.
Its meat is rich in omega-3 fatty acids that contribute to lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood. It thus helps to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. In addition, omega-3 is essential in the nervous tissue and retina, as it is part of its cells.
It is a highly recommended food for the full neurological and ocular development of children, since the retina and nervous system are still in formation.
