About Water packed tuna
Water-packed tuna is a low-fat, protein-rich food made from high-quality, cooked tuna fillets preserved in water. As a staple in many cuisines, particularly Mediterranean and American diets, it's prized for its versatility in dishes like salads, sandwiches, and casseroles. This lean seafood option is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health, as well as important nutrients like selenium, vitamin D, and B vitamins. Low in calories and free of added oils, it is ideal for those seeking a lighter, nutritious protein. However, some varieties may contain added sodium, so it’s worth checking labels if you're watching salt intake. Additionally, due to potential mercury levels, moderation is recommended, particularly for pregnant women and young children. Easy to store and use, water-packed tuna offers a healthy and convenient option for balanced meals.
