Canned Seafood: Nutrition Facts and Calories
Canned seafood includes a variety of fish and shellfish, such as tuna, salmon, sardines, and mackerel, preserved in sealed cans. These products offer a convenient source of protein and often contain beneficial omega-3 fatty acids. They are typically packed in water, oil, or sometimes sauces. When choosing canned seafood, check the Nutrition Facts label. Pay attention to sodium content; the FDA recommends a Daily Value of 2,300 milligrams for most adults. Some canned seafood, especially those in sauces or seasoned varieties, may contain added sugars. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans suggest limiting added sugars. Also, look at saturated fat, particularly if the product is packed in oil. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend keeping saturated fat intake to less than 10% of daily calories. The ingredient list can help you identify products with simpler ingredients and fewer additives. Choosing canned seafood packed in water can help manage fat and sodium intake.
