Canned tuna water is the liquid byproduct often retained from canned tuna, typically consisting of water, natural oils, and dissolved nutrients from the fish. Originating as part of the preservation process for canned tuna, this liquid may carry hints of the sea and the rich umami flavor of tuna. It is commonly used in pet nutrition, particularly for hydrating or enticing pets who need extra moisture in their diet. Nutritionally, canned tuna water contains small amounts of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and trace minerals like potassium and phosphorus. However, it can also vary in sodium content depending on the canning process, which may not make it ideal for excessive human consumption. While it is not traditionally a culinary ingredient, it can be used in broths or as a flavor enhancer. Opt for low-sodium versions to maximize its health benefits and limit potential risks.
