Tuna is an Almost Perfect Food!
No matter what type of diet you follow, tuna is an inexpensive and easy to prepare source of important nutrients.
Tuna is high in protein and low in fat and calories when compared with other proteins.
The majority our products from the popular Chicken of the Sea, are saturated fat-free, have no more than one gram of fat per two-ounce serving when packed in spring water (only 60-70 calories), and only three to six grams of fat when packed in delicious canola oil (only 90-110 calories).
A low-fat, high-protein product is a great beginning to a nutritious meal.
If you're a runner, bodybuilder or athlete of any kind, you need to know the benefits of making tuna a regular part of your training diet. As you know, protein's amino acids are an essential building block for strengthening and maintaining muscles, repairing damaged tissues and boosting energy levels.
Unlike carbohydrates, which cause an insulin spike that soon leaves you tired and hungry, protein stabilizes blood sugar levels, keeping your appetite in check and your energy levels high.
Plus, tuna and related high-protein foods are very low in fat, meaning that you can snack on a can of tuna throughout the day without having to worry about adding excess pounds.
As the date of an athletic contest nears, the low-sodium varieties of tuna become even more critical, giving your body the energy you need without the water-retaining sodium found in many other foods. Tuna is one of the tastiest, most nutritious athletic supplements you can find.
