WHY SALMON

If you are not a fish-eating type of person just stay a while, I think you'll learn a few things about salmon that may have you picking some out on your next grocery run. If you are a pescatarian or regular fish eater, welcome! You are in the right place!

First of all, I love salmon! Cooked or raw in sushi or sashimi form, or even on top of a bagel with cream cheese... there are various amounts of ways to incorporate salmon into your diet. Not only is salmon delish but its health benefits will knock your socks off. So let's get down to the facts now…

When it comes to Salmon, omega-3s are pretty top-tier. Omega-3s are essential fatty acids, the human body can not make omega-3s so, therefore, we have to consume them. They provide us with the starting point for making hormones that regulate blood clotting, arterial function, and inflammation, helping to regulate a hormone imbalance. Here are some examples of hormonal imbalances… Thyroid hormone imbalance can cause weight gain and lead to dry skin and muscle weakness, and even depression. Another is, insulin imbalance some common symptoms are obesity, absence of menstruation, high blood pressure, and skin tags. Estrogen dominance in women causes heavy periods, mood swings, worsening PMS symptoms, weight gain… etc. And low testosterone in men is also a hormonal imbalance & So many more!

Your protein intake becomes a vital factor when it comes to bodybuilding or just adding on some extra muscle. A high protein intake is about 1.6 to 2.0 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight.

Salmon only has 20 grams of protein per 100 grams, although there are other types of meat that range higher in protein, salmon is high in potassium resulting in the regulation of muscle contractions, meaning the chances of getting a muscle cramp during your workout or after your workout are low & nobody is a fan when it comes to muscle cramps.
